[quote=Anonymous]If you start pushing your kids to do the things that will get them into college when they are at a young age, you will (a) burden them from the get-go with ridiculous expectations. I've seen the damage this does, (b) completely miss the fact that childhood should involve a lot of playing and fun. If your child likes sports, fine. But if you start measuring the worth of their activities in terms of where they will go to school when they are 18, you are inviting lots of trouble. Also, kids tend to push back. We think we can craft them into our image of what they should be, but they will always have the lsat say.[/quote]
