When Your Child Leaves The Nest
Your child just graduated from High School. When you take stock of your emotions you realize that your happiness is also joined by a feeling of longing. They are going off to college in a few months and you only have very little time left with them before they leave the nest. Although they wont be relying on you as much for day to day dealings, they will still need you to help them grow, and keep them safe. Although they may be leaving your house with set rules, there are a number of ways to keep your child safe and sound. They will need your guidance more than ever for the following reasons.
Within the first few months of college, your child will be meeting hundreds of new people. Most of these people will be from their dorms and come from all over the world and from all walks of life. It is important for your child to understand that they will not get along with all of these new people and it is "okay" to choose your friends and put space between the bad seeds. It is also vital to know who your kids are becoming closer too so you can monitor kids with issues. You don't want to cross lines with telling them who they can and can't talk to but helping them if an issue arises is encouraged.
They will be going to parties. Alcohol and drugs will be in their eyesight and it is important for them to understand do's and don'ts of alcohol.
The opposite sex will show interest in them in a way they have never experienced. They will thus be subject to tough situations they are not used to.
Outside of the social stress they will have more school work than they have ever known. Stress will be a part of their life.
They will need you more than ever. As someone to talk to. As a confidant. As a parent.
Whilst giving them space and freedom make sure they know you are always there for them. They will be taking you up on the offer!
Good luck!
