As your child transitions from high school to life as a college student, you can still show that you care — from a distance.

The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests:

• Call your child regularly to check in.
• Visit your child at school, more frequently than just on parents’ weekend.
• Get to know the parents of your child’s roommates and friends.
• If you suspect homesickness, encourage your child to talk to school counselors.
