[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What help do you need from a guidance counselor, beyond transcripts? Help writing essays? Teacher recommendations? Highly performing public school students, and even lesser performing students can complete these tasks with no issue, and do not need hand-holding guidance every step of the way. Something to consider. [/quote] Have you had a kid go through this process recently? It's a lot different from when we were teens. [/quote] I'm sure it is, and I will help my kids in any way that I can. However, I will absolutely NOT contribute to increasing the hordes of young adults who do not know their butts from a hole in the ground. My kids will have my help and guidance, but will have to grow up and fend for themselves at some point. I remember asking my father to help me write college essays, and I remember him telling me that I was a capable writer, and that I needed to write them myself. [/quote]
