At 18, do your kids fly the nest or stick around? In this episode, Jennifer, Jenn, and Tasha tackle one of the toughest parenting questions for full-time RVing families: how do you launch your teens into adulthood from a 300-square foot home on wheels?

From couch-surfing disasters to successful military careers, boomerang kids to work camping adventures, this episode shares real stories from families who've been there. Hear interviews with Kirsten McCormick from Teen Connect Adventures and Alisha Deschene, a mom who's launched five kids while RVing. They share unexpected paths beyond traditional college that you and your teens may not have considered.

Discover why buying a house in San Antonio changed everything, how correspondence courses trump degrees for some careers, and why trade schools deserve more attention. Whether your teen dreams of animation, the military, or just needs time to figure it out, this conversation proves there's no single right way to launch. 

Learn How:

• Homeschooling transcripts work for college enrollment
• Workamping builds nest eggs and real-world skills
• Gap years provide clarity without wasting tuition money
• Independent travel experiences build essential confidence
• Trade schools offer six-figure careers without massive debt
• Boomerang kids aren't failures — they're learning
• Financial planning conversations should start early
