On the other hand, he is fairly mature and responsible. He doesn't have a history of making bad decisions. It only seems reasonable that he should decide for himself what to do after high school. And if I were wrong, if he had a good reason for wanting to stay that I began to understand later on, there would be no way to undo the sale. It's impossible to talk to him about why he had this sudden change of heart.
Any advice is appreciated.
But please don't tell me to rent the house. I have no interest in being a landlord, and the rental market is tight here. And please don't advise me to seek financial aid. Even with the financial aid package his college has offered, we would have to sell the house. All rights reserved.
