[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 644942, member: 1550"] Wiped Out, it is a universal sadness and fear when our kids go off to college, I tink. MY biggest easy child, who has never been in trouble and has given so much of her goodness to us, left. It was a devastating hole in my heart. I was also afraid of if she'd like her roommates or transition well to college. She had always been such a star in high school, and it was a TINY high school, and I worried how she'd take just being one of the crowd. She is also doing well and, being a classic extrovert and very friendly (something I can not even relate to), she knows everyone at her school now. She does miss us and we communicate a lot, but I don't really know what she does day-to-day. I'm not afraid she is into "bad" things...her grades were good. College can change a shy child and impact her life very positively. And the kids who go are really young adults and past the high school stuff, it seems. I'm so happy it is working out for your daughter :!!:biggrin: [/QUOTE]
