[quote=Anonymous]I generally like the violin player versus cello player analogy, but it really depends on how intuitive your middle schooler is. Because if they have very good social perception, they’re going to realize that the analogy is bullshit if they see less qualified people from their school get in for reasons having nothing to do with their innate qualities and everything to do with their parents’ social status. That said, I agree with PP that this is as good a time as any to start learning these Arbitrary and disappointing life lessons which will come up again and again[/quote]
