Now or in the near future tons of students will don caps and gowns, put on their best smiles, and stride purposely forward into the next chapter of their lives. Maybe they are leaving high school to head to college or they are graduating college to embark on a new career, heading to a bright and shining future. Either way, as a parent, you may need a little relaxer to steady your nerves. We have the thing for you.
