I'm in the let them go away camp. But really I'm in the let them make the decision camp. I laugh at the parents that make their kids stay home for school then these same parents go on a 10,000 dollar plus holiday. I'll sacrifice a few years of vacation to allow my kid to do what they want where they want. If cost is truly a concern then I understand. If you're just imposing your will then what is that teaching them?

I'm also in the camp that commuting to uni then home every night is missing out on a lot of what post secondary is about.
