Dropped daughter at uni today 3 hours from home. She said the minute she got there she wanted to come home and I could tell she was close to tears when I left. 4 hours after I left she phones me up to ask where something is but cries down the phone for 10 mins. I said all the right things but the minute she hangs up Im crying!
She only turned 18 in August so has very little experience of drinking / clubbing which worries her. Shes lost confidence in her subject despite gaining A* grade a levels. Her boyfriend ended their 6 month relationship 5 days ago as he didn't think the distance of different unis would work. All this on top of what I guess is gonna be normal homesickness.
Is what she is feeling quite normal, everyone on her corridor seems to be enjoying themselves whilst all she is doing is crying.
I feel awful, just want to hug her. She feels awful, Help, any advice appreciated x
