[quote=Anonymous]I went to two colleges. One was local, similar to GMU. I just did everything on my own, including shopping. I don't think my parents even knew when classes began. Then I transferred to the big state flagship (UVA type school) my second year. I just loaded everything into my little 4 speed hatchback, including furniture, and off I went, moving myself in, finding my own place to live with a friend and finding a job to put myself to put myself through school. I even filled out the financial aid forms myself. My little sister helped me lift my dresser into the car. My mom made me my favorite meal, and off I went. I don't think my dad was there to say goodbye. I think I even checked my own tires and fluid before hitting the road. Early 1990s. How different things are today. We (including me) really baby-fy our yound adults. It is probably not good for them for us to make them so dependent on us for even basic adult life skills.[/quote]
