[quote=Anonymous]The most successful AND happy people I know did not become that way because of parental pressure. The ones who had intense parental pressure are miserable, even if from the outside their jobs look great. If your kid is gonna do amazing things, the best thing you can do is support and get out of their way. But if you think knowing algebra in 1st grade or playing on the top travel soccer team at age 8 makes ANY difference in the long term, you aren’t paying attention. Also, go read the threads about the teen mental health crisis we have. Adolescent suicide is way up. Parent accordingly. [/quote]
