[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that you both went to the same school is a good reason for your DC not to go there.  Its really important at that point in his or her life she follow her own path.  The pressure to go his or her parents' school can be really distorting.  She's entitled to an open shot wherever she wants.

My DH went to a different school than I did but I have told my DD that I do not want her to go to my school.  I loved it, but I want her to get out from our shadow.

Please don't think about this for 12 years.  Your child is five.  Its just not healthy.[/quote]

OP here. I'm definitely not stressing about it. But if it would be helpful to give a few hundred dollars to the college each year and if there would be any benefit to starting now (given that we are talking about hundreds a year and not thousands and thousands), I would like to go ahead and get started. If it's not a factor, I would probably give that money to another charity. I'm fine if DC decides to go to another school, so we wouldn't pressure DC about it.  It's not a bad school, so I would just like to do what I can to make it one of DC's options, that's all. [/quote]
