<p>Thanks all!!! I agree with everyone if that makes sense. I know the CC route can be an excellent option. I know the experience I had as a college freshman living in the dorms was one I would wish for all kids and I know that that means nothing in relation to other people’s experiences.</p>
<p>In my original post I neglected to include the fact that we live in a rural, geographically isolated area and that kids who don’t leave often end up becoming sort of “stuck” but even so I will not bring it up unless asked and then I will tread very lightly.</p>
