[quote=Anonymous]For us it was peer group. Once we switched schools and DC found new friends that were strivers/high achievers, he followed suit. He didn’t want to be left behind, didn’t want to be the only kid who didn’t get into a “good” college (not IVY, T10). There was nothing we could have done to motivate him if he didn’t find this peer group. And I do consider this luck. DC could have easily found a different peer group that was less ambitious.
