Last Minute Sales & Specials

You've taught them how to do their laundry, bought them a year's supply of toothpaste and shampoo, and lectured them on the do's and don'ts of life beyond your home. The time has come for your child to leave for college -- but are you prepared to say goodbye?

Written by a mother who survived the perils of packing her own child off to school, WHEN YOUR KID GOES TO COLLEGE provides supportive, reassuring, and helpful tips for handling this inevitable but difficult separation.

-- How to fill -- and even enjoy -- the hole that your child's absence leaves.
