Question

15．It's the last year of high school，and young minds are turning their attention to the thought of leaving home．This seems a natural progression：parents have children； raise children； children graduate from high school and flee far from parents，returning on weekends to eat home-cooked meals．But what happens when a child loses home right before leaving？
My family has lived in my home since I was two years old．Seventeen years later，as I got ready to leave for university，my parents decided that it was time to move．And naturally，I panicked．This was the place I used to run around with friends； where I got sunburned，chasing ants with sidewalk chalk； where I would sit for hours staring out，making up songs about the passersby．If we were to move，the new house wouldn't be my home at all，just a strange，new place．After all，I'd be moving out to go to university．But something still wasn't quite right．
And then it hit me：this is what the move was really about．I wasn't concerned with losing my childhood bedroom．What was bothering me was that I'd soon be completely responsible for myself．
When I do go to university，I'll go without a safe place to come home to．Of course I'll have my family's love and support，but I'll never be able to go home again．
As graduating high-school students，we're all in love with the idea of going away and having wild adventures if we always have someplace to return to．Leaving the family home behind is really just growing up without a safety net．The move from one place in life to another is an important change．Because it's true，you can never go home．Not really，however．Once you've had an adventure or two，you will still have a nice place to come back to for a nice visit．
