The iConnected Parent: Staying Close to Your Kids in College (and Beyond) While Letting Them Grow Up
From the publisher: “‘Just let go!’ That’s what parents have been told to do when their kids go to college. But in our speed-deal culture, with BlackBerries and even Skype, parents and kids are now more than ever in constant contact. Dr. Barbara Hofer, a Middlebury College professor of psychology, and Abigail Sullivan Moore, a journalist who has reported on college and high school trends for the New York Times, offer a groundbreaking and compelling account of the positive and negative impact of communication between parents and children during the college years and beyond. The iConnected Parent is an invaluable guide for any parent with a child heading to or already on campus.”
