Words of Advice


"Mom I love you, but don't bug me about doing my homework. I need to develop good study habits on my own."
— Courtney


“I told my mom to send me stamps so I could write letters to them and a phone card so I could talk to them every now and then. I also like to receive a package of goodies. I really enjoy receiving them.”
— Ann Marie
Before I moved up here,
I asked my mom to send me a copy of my hometown newspaper, so that I could keep up with my sister and brother's activities. My dad occasionally sends me letters that keep
my spirits high.
— Kaitlin

“Always provide
a good listening ear no matter what time it is.”
— Hogan
“After careful reflection, the voice of reason blossomed from deep within me saying that I would ask my parents for more mail and care packages.”
— Jason


"When my parents asked why I didn't call home more often, I responded that college was a time for me to find my true self, and no news was probably good news!"
— Theresa
