“Best not to send the kids to college today, unless they commute. Yes, 18 is an adult, but at my age, I now see 18 as a kid.”
YEP, kept my kids at home, simply based on my own live-in college experience. BEST THING that I ever did regarding college. Sure, it greatly limited where they could go to school, but after the first job or two, no one cares!
Good for you. I never lived on campus myself, so I was so happy when my firstborn got that opportunity. Now that I know better, I'm relieved that my other kids do not live on campus.
