Kids have been "given" the wrong expectation. Most freshmen hate their first year which is why the industry tracks first year retention rates. Which can be as high as 4 out of 10 freshmen don't come back for sophomore year. Whether it is loneliness or weed out classes, they should be told up front what it is really like. 😮 If your kid isn't ready, send them to community college.
