[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He should have stayed at home. Go and live in a small room you share with people that don't care and he does not know. And everything is closed. He needs to stay in the room the whole time, apart from getting food. Honestly, who can blame him? What is there to like right now? He switched a nice house, probably with his own room, to share space with strangers and the library is closed! Have him come home.[/quote] No, you can't rescue your child every single time they have a negative emotion. This is what leads to poor coping skills. He is an adult. He can stay for 3 months and finish the semester. He can also look around and find ways to socialize. All changes and new environment suck a little bit at first. If he is lonely, tell him to Facetime you at night regularly for a half hour. He can get out and find a place to routinely get coffee or breakfast. He will be a regular pretty quick and it gives a little connection. [/quote]
