[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Proofreading my DD's essay is a nightmare I'm dreading. I'm not judging parents who do that I just fear it will be stressful to know I could make some content improvements but I will need to keep my mouth shut. How do colleges put much weight on essays when so many are ghostwritten or mega edited?[/quote] A lot of good advice on this thread. I was worried about proofreading but eventually really enjoyed it. I asked a lot of questions and learned so much about my children. I heard about experiences that were more important to them than I had realized. I heard them articulate what a “good” school meant to them. We talked about who was important to them in HS and what they would’ve done differently. I asked a lot of “whys” and “can you tell me more about what this means” or “why that was important”. It was really neat to see things from their perspective. [/quote]
