Because it was a temporary absence, you need to report he lived a home all of the months he was away at school.
TurboTax does not consider the time at school living away from your home because the program is well aware that the IRS allows you to claim college students as dependents and can include the months at school as living in your home. There should be a better explanation and it has been passed to the programmers.
You are supposed to count the months he is away at school and the program does tell you this if you read the instructions .... the program does educate you if you do not know the rules just click on the helpful links ...
