Barron Trump continues his new life chapter in college. The presidential family has shown their support as he embarks on his studies at New York University's Stern School of Business in Lower Manhattan. Barron is reportedly still adjusting while living at the family's Midtown Manhattan residence, Trump Tower.
A source has revealed that his mom, Melania Trump, is guiding him throughout his first semesters, and it seems he will not be staying at the college dorms anytime soon. "Living in a dorm in a college town isn’t in the stars for him at this point," a source said to People magazine.
“Whether or not others think he is capable of being on his own, Melania feels it's better to be around him as much as possible," the source said. "I see that continuing."
"[Melania] will do everything she can to make sure Barron does well in school and is socially and mentally adjusted to his life as a college student," the insider explained, adding that Barron "already has his own political ideas. It all needs to be monitored in light of the situation."
The former and future First Lady is also preparing to take on her political duties ahead of the presidential inauguration. However, she is still present for her son's needs. "Barron is in school all day, so she has plenty of time for official jobs as well as being there for her son when he needs her," the source said.
"Every mother handles her children the way she feels best," the insider said about the decision behind Barron to stay at the Trump Tower as he continues his education at NYU, adding that his living situation might change in the future, but it is the best decision "for now."
"I don't think it's possible for him to be a normal student. His experience at college, it's very different than any other kid," Melania previously said during an interview with Fox & Friends.
