[quote=Anonymous]We were incredibly stressed out, not because we piled anything on our kid, but because he has severe ADHD and low processing speed, and couldn't work quickly and well enough to apply to a lot of colleges, according to his own standards. He also could not keep track of deadlines to provide transcripts and scores, which I had to do. He ended up applying to 6 colleges. It was the most he could do and even that was a HUGE effort. It was a completely shite time! We didn't yell at him. We were just all stressed, worried about missing a deadline, kid laboring and worrying about the caliber of his essays, etc. My second child is much more functional, so despite the fact that she's a lot busier, we do not foresee as much stress when it comes to it. Point: don't generalize on what stresses families out, OP. [/quote]
