[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We pushed our kids and they all turned out fine and successful. [/quote] I didn't push my kids and they all turned out fine and successful. [/quote] PP you were responding to - 1 Phd in engineering and 2 medical doctors. How successful were yours? [/quote] I'm not the PP, but to me successful is that they have a job/career where they can support themselves and they are happy and contributing to society. One does not need to be a Medical MD to do this (or have a PHD in a stem field). I didn't have kids to live vicariously and push them to do stuff so I can brag about them. I'm happy to have smart well adjusted kids who contribute to the world, who are nice to everyone, who other people want to be around, etc.. I just hope that they love their career and life choices[/quote]
