[quote=Anonymous]I have a high school junior and I’m noticing many PARENTS doing much of the heavy lifting for their high school children, especially in setting up non profits, start ups and research. My kid does science Olympiad and several of the winners have parents do most of the building for the competitions. DH works at a high profile job and also is associated with a top grad program. Be gets parents asking DH to write recommendations for kids he doesn’t know. The parents try to set up internships. The parents hire writing tutors to help write college essays. I’m just wondering if this is normal and if colleges can tell when it is the parents or the kid. [/quote]
