| I wouldn't short-change the younger sibling either. Not a good idea.
However, coming home from college IMO is highly over-rated. For girls especially, who seem quite apt to IM and call on the cellphones as they walk to class, and who don't want to leave their cohort at school any more often than necessary.
I talk to my daughter more now than I did when she was home. And while her younger brother has missed her, in some ways they are closer when they see eachother. |
