The reality is that if a child is attending college on the parent's dime, that child is a dependent and should be subject to certain parental controls. It is still the parent's role to see that those controls are effective, either by raising a child that can be trusted, or by selecting a college that will provide appropriate supervision, or by cutting the cord.

How about not blaming the parent for the behavior of the "child"...has this ever occurred to you? Do all the "great parents" raise "great kids"? Is our world THAT "simple"...in your experience? Because, to me...our world seems full of "good people", who sometimes do "bad things". And, in some cases...VERY bad things.
