Second Chance
“One of the strangest things about leaving home is having your parents come to visit you in your new domain. It’s a role reversal because suddenly they’re standing in your home and they have to ask your permission to turn on the television or park in the driveway or eat something out of the fridge and you have to lay down the rules.
Conversation becomes a careful balance. You won’t fill them in on too much of your love life (because really, do they want to hear about it?), you don’t tell them to...o much about your social life (they were in college once; they know the scene), and you certainly don’t fill them in on your problems (guess what, I was a stoner for the past six months!). You keep your talks centered around school and sports and the general weather in your area. You don’t want to act homesick, because they’ll get these worry wrinkles on their foreheads. Yet, you also don’t want to seem too ecstatic to be free from their hovering control; you’ll just make them feel bad.MoreLess
