[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The whole idea of “cultivating a lifelong interest in a university” just seems very narrow and sad to me. Like the parent feels like they peaked at age 20 and spends the rest of their life focused on the 4 years the year spent in collegeo.[/b] Is this a sports team thing? I mean, encouraging your kid to cheer for your college football team does not have to translate into that child reliving your college experience for you. Or, if there is literally one school you can afford so your kid has to go to that one, that’s fine. But just be matter of fact about it. Don’t pretend it’s a great thing or the best school, just be honest. There is no shame, and a lot of wisdom, in graduating with a solid education and no debt.[/quote] +1[/quote]
