<p>Wow- I am confessing to being a bad mom 
My youngest is a senior and I do not buy the school offered finals emergency baskets, after 3 Bachelors, a masters, and 2 future doctorate degrees my attitude of school as summer camp has shifted. That plus seeing so many goodies I sent over the years go to the Goodwill this summer, I just decided it was a waste of time and energy. Money has been tight with 10+ years of tuition austerity, I don’t want to waste a penny on something not perfect so I end up only sending what is specifically requested.</p>
<p>BUT, D3 is in a triple with oldest children roommates who are sophomores, their parents are excited to send boxes and baskets for everything. Now I feel neglectful!</p>
<p>Some of your ideas are amazing- SDMom the group for care packages sounds lie a blast!</p>
