This episode of Thanks For Being Here began with a voice message left by listener Jennifer Drohan. Jenn explained that while she enjoyed the Live From College series, as the mother of two older children with autism, she found it somewhat painful to listen to…her children will not be going to college. Kelly asked Jenn if she would like to write something we could share and the result was this moving, illuminating and important essay called, “Forever Parents”. Jenn shines a light on the differences parents face in preparing their children for adulthood.
