(AAP) All About Prepping?

[Anonymous]

00:06 you are just being silly now. No sport in that. I don't even know how I landed on this site but I will turn it back over to the natives. Good luck everyone. Prepper, keep up the good work, non-preppers, finger crossed!

Heavy prepping is for not so smart borderline kids.

Borderline kids who prepare are smart indeed.

Smart kids who don 't are clearly stupid.

Do not send them my way -- no admission and no job. Final.

You may have a high IQ, but if you think that life is about promotions, raises, and early retirement I'm not sure that's smart. You and I apparently have completely different ideas about what makes a happy and successful life.

Enjoy TJ.
We will enjoy life.

The only life this moron enjoys is generational wealth from trust funds. Never earned an honest penny in life. What will this nincoom pop do when the money runs out? ... scream for welfare.

A high IQ is meaningless. I want product, performance and concrete and tangible results. Keep your WPSSI scores on the paper in your file cabinets. Not interested here.

You couldn't be further from the truth. We have no trust funds and no generational wealth. We live paycheck to paycheck. My parents are both still working, and I even have a grandparent still working. All blue collar.

I have a Masters in Education and taught for several years, but I am currently working part time to help make ends meet while my kids are growing up. My husband climbed the corporate ladder, but jumped ship to do what he really loves and we couldn't be happier.

I will always put my kids' education first, and I will support them in whatever they want to do. I don't expect (or want) them to be the next fortune 500 tycoon. My only expectation is that they do what they love.

what about curing cancer? what about discovering an AIDS vaccine? How about figuring out nuclear fusion so we have unlimited energy - stuff like that. Kids at TJ will do some of those things one day. That's not climbing the Fortune 500 ladder.

Why does it bother you so much that I won't drink the kool aid?

I'm just argumentative. So if your kids want to sit in the basement all day at age 25 playing video games that's okay with you since that's what they love?

I'm not concerned about that. I currently have one that wants to be a surgeon and one that is so in love with her sport that she has plans to coach after college.
Are you suggesting that your kids will do whatever YOU want?
I would even (gasp) let them go to TJ if that was what they wanted. The point is that I am following their lead. And just because they are in AAP doesn't mean that the next step has to be TJ followed by cutthroat colleges.
