What's so embarrassing about it?


OP here. Growing up I was quirky, artsy, crunchy, and politically opinionated. My son is none of those. Just a normal mainstream kid with typical interests such as sports and fitness. Life will be easier for him. I don’t get what I’m supposed to be embarrassed about, I’m happy for him.


You admit your kid is boring, ordinary, mainstream, conventional, and not a critical thinker.

You should be embarrassed that you have failed as a parent.

Are you joking?
This world already has far too many people who take themselves and their opinions very seriously and think they are hot stuff. Sorry not sorry if I did not produce another one.

Besides, you list mainstream and conventional as if those qualities preclude critical thought. That is not the case.

agree. Plus mainstream and conventional doesn't mean a person is boring either.

LACs seem to either be super selective or hardly selective at all and there doesn’t seem to be a lot in the middle. What am I missing? Looking for real mid tier not DCUM mid tier.




I think he would like Holy Cross if okay with catholic. He would need to show high demonstrated interest or participate in one of the ED rounds.

I think what they are saying is they are average, regular kid. A normal kid.

Stop reading too much into this.

This is stupid. This is a parent. A regular average parent. OP does not have to explain or justify to any of you idiots. OP is looking for suggestions for their kid. Chill out.

Wow. I hate to feed you, Troll, but you’re nuts.

To state the obvious … having mainstream and conventional interests does not mean someone lacks critical thinking skills or is ordinary or boring.

Isn’t Richmond pretty selective?
