The summer holidays are finally here and many parents are soon to find out where their DCs may be heading off to university. For teenagers and parents alike, this can be very daunting time. However, it’s also a time some parents may have secretly longed for…freedom is on the horizon!
Endsleigh, a UK provider of student insurance, wants to hear from you as parents about what you’ll be enjoying again, and what plans you’ve made once your DDs and DSs fly the nest.
Here’s what Endsleigh had to say: “Leaving for university doesn’t only affect students, but their parents too. We pride ourselves on understanding students’ needs as they prepare for university, and throughout their university careers. With over 50 years’ experience, Endsleigh is the No. 1 student insurance provider and the only one recommended by NUS.
Our cover protects gadgets, watches, contents, bikes, musical instruments and even tuition fees (if the student has to withdraw due to unforeseen circumstances) under one policy—giving students the flexibility to protect the things that matter to them (and you) the most. Endsleigh gives you peace of mind.”
Planning on seeing the world, or moving abroad? Ready to give up washing the sports kit? Converting newly-vacated bedrooms into an office? Or perhaps you just can’t wait to have full control of the tv again!
Whatever you are planning/longing to do when your DCs move into the big wide world of university life, share it on the thread below and you’ll be entered into a prize draw with a chance of winning a £300 voucher of your choice (from a list).
Thanks and good luck

Getting a new set of crockery and cutlery from the bedroom 
Reduction in food and electricity bills
DD is off to university this year and I shall be claiming the big bedroom!
She's the one with the most junk stuff, so I gave her the biggest room. She still insists on surrounding herself with papers and wrappers downstairs- so I'm looking forward to having a tidier house too!
I'm also looking forward to her experiencing a whole new world, and meeting people with the same interests as her.
I was 17 when she was born and have lived with her my entire adult life. I'm going to be a bit lost when she leaves, but am so proud of her for following her dreams 
I actually want my DD to go to uni locally and stay here. I'll miss her if she goes- but it's a good 5 years away and I might have changed my mind by then! And also I went away for uni and it was good practice for the big bad world of independence. If she went away we'd have a spare room too and I could sleep there
