Reply to "Dealing w/son's disappointment"

Dad of a freshman in college here, i think i've been pretty calm and remote for what it's worth. My wife and i have always been big fans of sink or swim, and my son swims....and then sinks....and then swims. Man, i miss the days when he would ask me all kinds of questions and seek advice...now he finds his way and although i'm proud of him, i miss those times when he'd asked the old man. I know he'll call when he wants to talk and i will be there, just let your son grow and swim....understanding he may dip under a few times along the way. Boys are tough and you'd be surprised how much it will help him become a young man.
