[quote=Anonymous]It's interesting to me that even the most meritocratic parents here have given up on the tip-top university admissions. And not just because of the odds - because the steps required to approach the throne are just too much, and our next generation of kids might as well be happy with a decent white collar job and a chance to see our grandchildren awake rather than trying to turn themselves into McKinsey/biglaw/medical-resident slaves to their jobs (which many of us have been far too willing to do, for so little goddam return, having been convinced that academic stardom and meritocratic success would make us happy and guess Fing what) Unless I've totally misread the tenor of recent posts.[/quote]
