Parents of college kids have weighed in on my post about the things you really don’t want to hear your college kid say to you – either via email, text or voice mail.
My favorite reaction came from a dear old friend (emphasis on the word ‘dear’ and not the word ‘old’)
?Ǭ†I am all too familiar with the nonchalant statement, designed to scare the pants off of you.?Ǭ† I am very proud to report that a few weeks ago, when my college senior son announced that money was so tight (the large sums he made this summer having gone to support the beer and wing industry), that he was considering “selling his plasma, ” I was able to say “Well, it’s yours to sell.”?Ǭ†?Ǭ† Now that , my friends, is progress!
For those of you who think that toddlers are a lot of work, I suggest you re-read this quote a few times….
