To say goodbye to finals and exams is a dream! But to say goodbye to some of my closest friends…?

Dear CMR,

I am a college sophomore and I've been trying to move my relationship with my parents into an age-appropriate place. I don't live close to them and I am growing and changing in ways they aren't around to see. I still want them in my life but since we don't live close, how do I grow and encourage them to understand that I am changing and evolving?
