Only at the hands of those wound ridiculously tight. This thread was clearly not for them. Let the rest of us have our fun![/quote]

What fun would that be?[/quote]

There is no point to this thread other than to post self-congratulatory anecdotes about how relaxed, cool you and your kids are and how well you are doing.

This thread is also a way to reassure parents that applying to college doesn't have to be a source of nonstop conflict and anxiety. There are a ton of posts elsewhere about parents battling their kids over applications, and some of them probably enjoy complaining about it. Years ago, one parent posted about filling out her daughter's applications.

For a lot of us, there's another way, and it minimizes friction while maximizing natural consequences. [/quote]

Yep, agree!  It’s refreshing to hear a counter-approach to the intense college application rat race you usually hear about on here.[/quote]
