I’ll add that being at odds with parents who want them to go elsewhere can be just as toxic to a student’s mental health.

As OP works through this process, it is important that they bring their parents along on the journey. The parents may thinking of their own feelings or what their friends will think as opposed to what is best for their child. The parents should visit the campuses and speak to students about their experiences along with the student. @green_green, you are very articulate and insightful in this thread. Are you equally insightful and articulate when you are communicating with your parents?
