<p>Has anyone read this book? I think I'll need it.</p>
<p>I read it the weekend we dropped my S off at college. It was pretty good if I remember, I may be dragging it out again!</p>
<p>Should I save it for August? Don't know if I'll be able to read through my tears!!!!</p>
<p>What, we have to let go? They don't have parent dorms right next to the student dorms, so we can keep an eye on our darlings?? Oh, darn!</p>
<p>(I actually have dreams where I am a fellow student at my son's college. so far just the older son, but when my baby leaves home... oh, dear, I don't want to think about it...)</p>
<p>lol Susantm. Applicantmum. it depends. My husband browsed it the months before and felt it was helpful. I was only inclined to read it right after.</p>
<p>I'm saving my copy to read in August. But I've owned it for three years. I knew I would need it.</p>
<p>It's a wonderful book. Reading it now could help you avoid the strife that often happens when kids start displaying their independence as they prepare to leave the nest.</p>
<p>I agree with Northstarmom, read it now. The focus of the book is from the students senior year in HS through College.</p>
