[quote=Anonymous]I was your daughter and my parents were you. We lived in a town with a lot of pressure to go to elite colleges. They never told me they were disappointed, though I knew. I saw so many peers burn out because they felt forced to go to certain schools. I had a wonderful college experience. My parents were so happy that I went to a college that was right for me. And honestly, in the end, the only people who continued to care about the elite college status were people my parents realized they didn't really like to be around anyways. Its fine and normal to be a bit disappointed. But be proud to know you raised someone who doesn't get caught in the game and knows who she is and what she wants! [/quote]
