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.

I agree with this entirely. I'm in the "let them decide" camp, which is why my daughter is here. I went away for university and it was 100% the best decision I ever made.
