[QUOTE="klmno, post: 237315, member: 3699"] Coongratulations to both of you! It sounds like you're a little burnt out- rightly so- and could use a little vacation to reflect on raising her and get her this far and just enjoy it and be proud!! I graduated high school a year early and I have to say, your daughter seems to have her head screwed on a lot better than I did at the time. For one, she starting at a community college, then planning to transfer. I thought I was "smart" enough to get into a college, so I should be able to start in that right off the batt. Needless to say, I didn't have the maturity as 18 yo's and I couldn't even do what 18yo's do. And, I think it's wise for her to say that she isn't sure what she wants to do- that's a whole lot better than diving into something and 3 years into it finding out that it isn't what she wants after all. The first year or two of college is a great time to leave those options open. She's doing good- just don't let her get married at 17 like I did, and quit college. [/QUOTE]
