[quote=Anonymous]They're 14. Kids who are smart dream of Ivies, kids who are sporty dream of the olympics and being professional athletes, kids who love politics dream of being president. There is really no need for reality at this age. They're just kids being kids. I don't think it's necessary to tell them, well, statistically, you'll be going to a state school, floundering in your 20s, ending up with an office job you wouldn't understand now if we told you, getting laid off, and then getting a worse one. And if you're smart you join a few book clubs, if you're sporty you coach little league, and if you're into politics, you give some money to candidates you care about and bloviate. [/quote]
