I was just talking with my dd who is at Duke about the students at Cornell .
She has a few friends spread out in different states one goes to Purdue one to Cornell another George Washington Univ. and another at Yale. high school pals that are freshman in college now
Anyhow dd is engineering like those at Cornell and it is not just that one college it is everywhere the pressure to ace everything being in a top college .
dd boy friend has been depressed since starting and she is worrying about him
they just had exams this week and one they both took she did great and he did not .they got the grades today .
at Duke they have fliers and signs and stuff all around with info for anyone needing support and help. I am glad I got to have another talk with my dd on this subject . dd wont think twice about calling boy friends mom if it starts getting to far. He used to be on meds for depression when he was younger .
and well it never hurts to talk to your kids even when they are 19 or any age.. talking is good. She even said she was glad we can talk about it
I am so Glad I failed my attempts !!!
