This completely revised and updated edition of Don't Tell Me What To
Do, Just Send Money prepares parents for the issues that they will
encounter during their children's college years. Since our original
publication over ten years ago, there has been a dramatic increase in
the use of cell phone and internet technology. The birth of the term
'helicopter parent' is, in part, due to the instant and frequent
connectivity that parents have with their children today. Parents are
struggling with the appropriate use of communicative technology and
aren't aware of its impact on their child's development, both personally
and academically.
With straightforward practicality and using humorous and helpful case
examples and dialogues, Don't Tell Me What To Do, Just Send Money
helps parents lay the groundwork for a new kind of relationship so that
they can help their child more effectively handle everything they'll
encounter during their college years.
