Moms Talk: The College Years

What advice to mothers have for those who are leaving for college?

Each week the Mentor Patch Moms Council answers a question posed to them by readers or another member of council.

We have reached that time of year when the college-bound depart for their universities.

Obviously, this is a big change for those young men and women. So, my question is, what was the best advice you ever gave when a loved one departed for college?
