As Ohio State played Youngstown State in its first home game of the season, many parents made the trip to campus to visit their kids for Parents Weekend and the Buckeye Football and Family Tailgate.
We asked Buckeye parents to reflect on their experience sending their young ones off to college and what it means to see them grow up at Ohio State.
With how hard it can be to let their kids leave the nest for the first time, these parents gave advice on how to keep in touch with their children while respecting their newfound independence.
