[quote=Anonymous]The best preparation is fostering independence and true passion. Sounds like maybe a little therapy on the side. Seriously, my kid is a senior. I saw kids like your this year: perfect scores, perfect grades and curated ECs. Shut out from the Ivy schools their parents so desperately wanted. The schools see through this, then the kids are unhappy and resentful because they have “wasted” high school becoming the “perfect” kid only to disappoint their parents anyway. Let your kids be who they are, encourage but don’t push. Then they won’t hate you and themselves.[/quote]
