Your college kid is coming home… and you want it to go well.
You’re excited to see them. You’ve missed them. You can’t wait to hug them, cook for them, and have them back in your house again.
But here’s the thing most parents don’t realize.
The child who left for college is not exactly the same kid coming home. And your home is not the same place they left either.
This is a brand new stage of parenting.
In this episode, I’m sharing two simple but powerful things every parent should think about before their college student comes home for break. When you understand these dynamics, you can avoid unnecessary conflict, reduce stress in the house, and actually create a stronger connection with your young adult.
This quick listen will help you navigate college kids coming home for summer, holidays, or school breaks in a way that feels calm, respectful, and connected for everyone.
Take a few minutes to listen before they arrive. It might completely change how this visit feels.
