580. THE PARENT TRANSITION FROM HIGH SCHOOL TO COLLEGE
Manage episode 425562893 series 2531929
We focus so much on our teens getting through high school and into college yet spend little time looking at the space between or how everyone involved needs to change and adapt for success. Amy and Mike invited educator Dr. Andrea Malkin Brenner to discuss the parent transition from high school to college.
What are five things you will learn in this episode?
What role can parents play to support their students as they become self-reliant and college-ready?
What are the major differences between being a high school parent and a college parent?
How can parents help students prepare for the academic, practical, and social responsibilities that come with independence?
When should conversations about college transitions ideally begin?
What are scenarios parents of college students might not expect but should be ready for?
