Personally, I’d leave Hailey’s room for a few years. As a young adult, I found it easier to take ‘safe risks’ (go off to college, try a new job, etc.) knowing I could always go home. There was nothing quite like the feeling of my own bed, too.

I would agree with this, especially since you have the room and due to the pandemic, my son had to finish his college career at home! Just food for thought. Also, my adult children rent small spaces in our very expensive state, so we are their storage units - lol! My daughter, who rents a small house with a roommate, lives 30 mins away and will soon bring back her summer clothes to switch out for winter clothes. Lastly, it may not work out for Hailey at her college. Then she’ll want to come home to regroup before launching out again.

Christine, although Hayley will be going to college, she will be home at Thanksgiving, Christmas, winter break, spring break and every summer for the next 4 years. We didn't make any changes to our 2 kids' rooms until they moved after college to their current homes. One of ours lives in San Francisco and the other moved to London. We are still in the same house in NH, just the two of us. You may not want to change anything for a while, just so that she has a place that's familiar and comfortable when she returns. They really do come home more than you think.

I didn’t feel upset about my little sister upgrading to my (larger) room, but when I had a tonsillectomy at age 19, I got really ill and I needed my dad to take care of me.

But I had residents that were so sadden by their rooms being changed, even if they were aware it happening... it hit them harder then they were expecting. Me personally, even though I never had terrible homesickness, it was always so comforting to come back to my room that was unchanged:)

Especially with how rough things are lately-- insane cost of living, insane rent, really low wages-- she might need the support.

I add grated carrots instead of sugar to sweeten up an acidic spaghetti sauce (AND it adds a bit more veg) 🙂 If you've got enough bedrooms to go around and you're able to, I'd recommend leaving your daughter's room as-is for the next few years (I'd say at least until she gets her own first apartment). Being able to come home at any time and go into her same old familiar bedroom that you've been keeping for her will feel so safe, warm, welcoming, comfortable, homey, etc (because she WILL be coming home, and maybe a lot more than you think - plus life is not always a straight line and they sometimes need a safe, supportive place in which to recover from unexpected difficulties and/or make new plans). It'll feel SO much better than being shunted into a room that was quickly turned into a guest room, office, storage room, etc, the minute she left - ugh. Oh, and buying stuff on sale can be VERY addictive!! It becomes almost impossible to STOP buying and just start using - even when every last speck of space is crammed full of food. FOMO hits SO hard if I'm not checking flyers and websites every week for sale items!!

I have one senior in college and one senior in high school. I’ve kept my oldest’s room for him since he’s moved away to school. He comes home for holidays and visits and over the summer. Then after he moves out on his own, I’ll either make it a shrine to him or my craft studio. Lol

Our son has moved back home 2x since he moved out , I didn’t change His room much , it’s our spare room . He was so very thankful to be able to return home . I have always let my kids know they can always come back home at any time . Rent here starts at 1500.00 and the average home to buy is in the $700,000.00 I live in the Interior of BC Canada . This spring homes were going for $150k Over asking price , it was crazy .

I’d say you could switch the rooms around as long as she still has one to come home to during holidays/breaks. My parents kept my things as storage until I purchased a home many years later.

My daughter went to college 4 hours away 6 years ago and never officially moved back home. She is now in Utah finishing her masters degree. Her room is still her room. We have put a different dresser in there but otherwise it is essentially the same. She has clothes that she leaves here for when she does come home. And while she has and has had her own place for a while, it is a space that is hers in her childhood home. When she finishes college and gets a place that is truly hers, we will probably redo it as a guest room. My son moved into an apartment in our town last year and his room has become a bit of a dumping ground. He is still figuring life out so we don’t plan to do anything to the room for a while. I think it is distressing to a child to go to college and have their room gone. It’s still their home while they are a young adult in school even if they aren’t there full time.

I'm starting to think my family is the only one incredibly underwhelmed by Rao's sauces. Love the video!

@Jessica- we don’t like it either. It’s too blah. We like prego or homemade.

I didn't care for it either. I had to add so many seasonings and such to make it palatable that making it from scratch would have been cheaper.

We aren't fans of it, either. It's bland and has too much oil in it for our tastes.

I’m a big fan of the Victoria’s sauce but I only buy it at Costco as two huge bottles are about $10 but at the grocery stores, the normal size bottles can cost up to $8. I only add a little sugar to cut the acidity and that’s it. My mom is full Italian, and this is the closest sauce to homemade I’ve ever found. My mom and her sisters like it too. Plus there’s always homemade sauce (gravy to us here in NJ) in the freezer at all times.

I grate zucchini into my pasta sauce. Sneaks in veggies.

I use my daughter's room for a dressing room and my son's room as an extra den. They so serve as guest rooms.

Leave Hailey’s room alone. Especially since you don’t need it. I was home on breaks during college, and moved home for about a year while I got on my feet with my full time job. That may not be your parenting approach I suppose, but my parents were great as long as I was clearly working and setting up my foundation. It worked and I was able to buy a home with my husband a few years later, largely because I was able to save and get a solid start that first year.

I love Upside too. It makes getting gas just a little less painful.

Well maybe your freezer seems just as full as before the cleanout, BUT, you have room for the prepared ahead meals! Win - Win.

Even though they go to college - they come home for the holidays! Make sure your daughter has some place to stay for Christmas, etc! (unless she has her own apartment and will drive back and forth)

Nothing, I did nothing to the college students bedroom. They come home for fall break, Christmas break, spring break and occasional weekends. Then they are home each summer. I leave the room alone aside from some good cleaning, until after graduation.

We kept our kids room for them while going to college. It was convenient as they often brought friends home too. 😉❤

I left my boys’ rooms as is for them while they were away at school. I always wanted them know they had a safe place to land that was still “theirs” as that’s something I didn’t have.

I have to laugh about the frozen bananas! When they start falling out of freezer…it’s time to make banana bread/muffins. Thank goodness we have friends and family close by to share in the bounty. 👍🙌😂🤣
