Two years ago, we left our girl at college. It was one of the hardest days of my life. I get teary now even thinking back on it. But, we survived! Not only survived, things are good and as they should be for her and us.
Many of you are facing this reality now as you plan to move yours to college this week. Or if not this week, very soon. On top of that if you are a girl parent, you have another whole set of fears with Recruitment looming large. So for you (and/or your child) in the midst of all those emotions, I’m reposting links to past posts related to college, recruitment and transition. As well as a one with important words of caution for your college student.
I hope you find these helpful. If so, please share with other parents. And on Friday I’ll be sharing one more – 3 Takeaways for the College Student – that I’ve written for Rooted Ministry. To receive it in your inbox be sure to subscribe to blog posts in top right-hand corner of my homepage.
