About This Workshop

If your college student is coming home for the holidays, there’s likely more to “unpack” than just their laundry. The transition can be challenging for both parents and young adults. In this class, you’ll learn what to expect as your teenager-turned-young-adult adapts back to the rules and routines of family life. Discover strategies for setting boundaries and expectations together. Welcome them with love and care, while preserving your own well-being and the rhythms of your home. Remain curious about their new experiences and newfound independence, while ensuring respect for your household. Whether you’re concerned about curfews, chores, or simply spending quality time together, this class will equip you to make the most of the time your college student is home for the holidays and set the stage for a successful return to campus.

After this workshop, you will be able to:

  • communicate effectively and set realistic expectations with your college student about responsibilities, behaviors, and house rules during the holiday break
  • create a welcoming environment that balances your college student’s need for independence and your desire for quality family time
  • identify strategies to take care of your own well-being as your teen (who is becoming a young adult) transitions back home
  • equip your college student with tools to support their academic, emotional, and social success in the next semester
  • prepare your college student for a smooth return to campus after the holidays
