[quote=Anonymous]My parents were very strict. Immigrants ... we get the job done. I was also very internally motivated, but they set the bar pretty high and it was extremely clear that I wouldn't be going to college unless I got massive scholarships. So I did. My sister was less motivated, but still obviously college-bound, so her bar was different. It didn't feel fair at the time, but as a parent, I understand it now. We are somewhat strict ... not tiger parents by any stretch, but always trying to get the kids to be the best they can be. [/quote]
