<p>This is a great tread because as it develops one finds more and more useful information. My son wants to live in the dorms. The point is that we only live 15 min away from the college he chose and the room and board in a private university(as you all are aware) is pretty costly. We told him that we did not see the point since we had to wake him up every morning to go to school. Guess what?He started to wake up on his own. One day he had to catch a bus for a school trip at 4;00 am. He woke up and drove himself on time.</p>
