[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 711627, member: 18958"] This sounds phenomenal. I would try to let him stay in the driver's seat and manage my expectations, though, hard, I know. If he decides now is not the time, he can tell them to put his application on hold. On my recent trip back east I met a woman almost my age who had been accepted to a pastoral program that she really wanted. She said that she withdrew her application at the last minute due to anxiety and depression. These thing happen even to high functioning and high achieving people nearly 3x son's age. I think one of my own biggest issues is being too invested in outcomes I want, over which I have no control and no right to aspire--except for myself. [/QUOTE]
