<p>Just when we think we know our kids, they do something we didn’t plan for. Our family heads to BS in a little over a week and this story helped me reset expectations–the experience is bounded to be filled with ups and downs and the road will not be linear. This story was a great eye opener for those of us heading for schools in the next couple of weeks. Thanks DebateMom and keep us posted. BTW, who was the most “on the scene” contact for you at the school? We live very far from BS and want to develop a relationship with one who can give us some feedback from time to time.</p>
