[quote=Anonymous]I think it's the cumulative effect of trying to be the absolute best at everything. Not only to have 12 APs and perfect grades, but also to be concert master in the orchestra and found a nonprofit that pairs orphans with kittens. The amount of wealth for external coaching/training/lessons means that it's not enough to just really love singing or playing the cello or playing soccer. Because everyone else is getting extensive private coaching, there's no room for a hobbyist, which means creates an arms race. [/quote]
