POV: college freshman boy moms

Transcript

I specifically asked the university to not place my baby boy freshman Daniel's dormitory near a sorority house or a house or whatever you ladies want to call it. I know what you guys wear. I've seen it when I was dropping him off at orientation and his house was right next to a sorority. And they roll out there dancing and throwing it back. Oh boy, Mom is not happy. Mom is not happy. I will be reaching back out to the university and will keep you all updated. But I think it's ridiculous that he's going to be looking at other women. We've had this issue in the past. He just needs not to be looking at other women. I am the only woman he needs in his life right now until he's older.
