放手的小贴士  

当学生开始上大学时, parents and families often experience a mixture of feelings that are not unlike the ones their students are having. It is a combination of excitement and anticipation tinged with anxiety. There is also a sense that the relationship between adult and child is changing and that things will never be quite the same again. 

当学生开始大学生活的时候, parents and families are often fearful that they will no longer be able to influence them. 在这个过程中, losing sight of the fact that this time can also provide an opportunity to forge a stronger relationship that can include pride and satisfaction for everyone.  

明确的预期

在你的学生离开学校之前讨论他们的期望. 这会让你们的关系走向更大的成功. Expectations may pertain to relatively straight forward matters such as how many visits home they will be making to more complicated ones like how finances are to be managed.

Hopefully you have had conversations about these topics before as your student has been growing and becoming more independent, 但沟通永远不会太迟! 

给空间

Accept that there are times when they are going to have to learn the hard way. These occasions often provide self-taught lessons that they will appreciate and value the most.

Although your own experiences may enable you to foresee some of the consequences of these decisions, you will aid your student’s growth when you resist "teaching them about life" and giving them the "I told you so" treatment if things don't work out. These messages also can shut down lines of communication and serve to reinforce the idea that your student cannot handle it, when obviously what you want to support is their growing confidence in their good decision making. 

允许关系发展

  • Recognize that college students have considerable autonomy while living on campus 
  • Avoid power struggles by listening to their point of view in an open, respectful way so that differences of opinion can be expressed. 
  • 清楚地表明, 当情况允许时, what you are willing to be flexible about and what you feel too strongly about to change. 
  • 试着不回到以前的角色. 例如, asking to speak with your student’s teacher is what parents and families do in high school, 但不是在大学. 

保持联系

  • Make a routine of being in contact through whatever form of messaging you and your student prefer. It is a great idea to ask them about the contact they would like from you (e.g., 频率和种类), and you can express your wishes or expectations about contact you would like from them. 
  • 计划一个 参观校园. This can help you feel more connected to your student's world.  

授权给他们

  • Avoid the temptation to "rescue" them even though they may call you sounding quite upset. 而不是一下子就给出困境的答案, ask what options your student is considering for dealing with the problem. 
  • 提前考虑, some of the likely situations your student may encounter so that you won't overreact if they occur. These might include difficulty in getting along with a roommate, 家庭病, 并暂时失去自信. Your ability to stay calm can be invaluable in helping them to keep things in perspective. 
  • Recognize that college is a time when your student will be exposed to different viewpoints about political, 社会, 宗教问题会影响他们看待生活的方式. 

寻求额外帮助

It is important to recognize that even though your student may be away from home, 他们仍然需要爱, approval and security that a good relationship with parents and families provides. 然而, sometimes there are problems that you cannot help with because of your distance from the situation or not knowing what to suggest. If you should become concerned that your student is having more difficulty than you are comfortable with, 督促他们复习 这里汇集了资源newbb电子平台的团队.
