[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a sobering article. I think of some of parents at my kids 'top' private school who are constantly talking about their kids going to HYP, do or die. I don't even want to think about what goes on behind closed doors with their kids. I also read the comments after the article. Though there were numerous psychological comments and one dissertation from a physician, the comment that carried the most weight with me said[b] "I have always told my girls (from middle school and beyond) there is always a way out.[/b] You don't have to go back. Say the word and we can change it." Wise words. I would also add that 'B' grades or even 'C' are not the end of the world. You will (not can) still be successful.[/quote] but the parents in the article were this way too, and it didn't help. The young lady in the article clearly had that opportunity and didn't want to take it. [/quote]
