How have your children grown in maturity from high school to college?


Recommended Posts

Can’t believe ds will be off to college in a few short months.  Now that we’re mostly done with the application process, I’m thinking about the next phase - succeeding at college.

Ds is a good kid who hasn’t given us much trouble over the years, but last semester was suprisingly ROUGH.  I felt like I was mostly dragging him along when it came to schoolwork.  He did fine in his first 2 DE courses (an A and a B), but he is really behind in his at home courses thru Derek Owens.  It will take him a lot of work to catch up.

That, combined with life skills stuff like organization, time management, etc. has me a bit concerned.

Do any of you have stories about how your children stepped up to the plate (or matured) when it came to college and also advice on things you did during senior year to help that growth process?

Just looking for some encouragement.
