<p>Oh that made me chuckle. I think these students need to work this out themselves without the parents (either parent). I stand by my original suggestion. IF (this is the important part) the OPs DD is bothered by anything with her roommate, she should discuss it with the RA...and at least air it out. After doing so, it may become clearer to the daughter whether these are issues to deal with or if she needs to seek a room change.</p>
