Chance threads should focus on the OP. Responses should be targeted to the OP. A student-started thread in particular is not the place to go off-topic and - worse - debate those off-topic posts

I was wondering if you could share exactly what you mean by “supporting” you in this context?
Re comments above: (1) @SaltyPinstripe do you mean “western” rather than “American” culture, because I know of a good number of other countries where kids go away to college; but (to other posts) (2) let’s also not forget that very many colleges in the US are commuter colleges. It’s a fallacy that everyone “goes away” from home.
I’m more interested in the specifics of OP’s case and what the impact on them are of parents being close by - it might be detrimental to the college experience , but it might not.
