[quote=Anonymous]My HS Junior is an absolute nightmare. Mean, arrogant, not open to advice, and I worry they are going to cheat or lie to get ahead (they already stretch truths) in the name of "achievement." We never pushed for top colleges, but they are determined to get into one. Turns out they could be a good candidate but they want more. They are singularly-focused on achievement at all costs: sleep, basic kindness, cooperation, rule following, all of it. I want to throttle them daily, disavow finacial help, or move out. I can't take much more of this rudeness, bravado, over-confidence, and anger directed at me. I am not looking for anyone to tell me to take their phone away. I am looking for compassion and similar experiences or maybe advice. Also wanted to vent. [/quote]
