My mom is extremely sad about me going to college... Advice?

i don't think it's okay for your mother to pull you back. me and my mom are best friends but she knows that when she's dead i will need to take care of myself and if i want a family. you need to talk to your mom tell her that you won't forget her but have to be a grown up. call her every night if needed and try to slowly break away from her. even best friends have lives away from each other.
