[quote=Anonymous]My parents were extremely hands off...except for writing. My mother was an English teacher, so she'd mercilessly critique my papers. "This is fine if you want to be another sheep in the flock..." Other than that, they had no idea what I was doing or when I was doing it. I went to a Big Ten school and just barely graduated with honors. They just wrote the checks. Got a full ride for my PhD at a middling university. I had a lot of fun and almost no pressure. I hope to reproduce that experience for my kids. [/quote]
