Daily News | Dad dropping freshman daughter at college promises to keep it together. He won’t.
Over lunch recently, I asked my 19-year-old daughter if I could write about her starting college in Massachusetts in two weeks after a gap semester.
After helping set up her dorm room, I’ll probably drop a dad joke, wait for the eye roll, then entangle her in a brief sort of dude-hug, not so much an embrace as a clumsy hand clasp with a light back slap.My daughter is dubious. “I love you, dad,” she tells me. “But when it’s time for you to go, you’ll be a mess.”I can’t help interpreting my daughter’s enthusiastic eagerness to leave Salem County as a negative referendum on me.
