[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am familiar with families like yours so I get your issue. DS went to Andover. He had a friend there who went on to be a 9th generation Yale student and was also a 9th generation Andover student. For that family the path was clear and utterly rigid. First Andover, then Yale. No deviation was even entertained as a thought, let alone tolerated. Imho it puts unnecessary pressure on the children. They should be free to make their own path and not be constrained by family tradition. [/quote] Andover is full of those. It was originally built as a Yale feeder school. Exeter was built as a Harvard feeder and Lawrenceville as a Princeton feeder. These poor kids. Hard to feel sorry for them because of the enormous privilege they are born into, but they usually have to deal with some really crazy sh*t from their families. No wonder many of them grow up to be bitter, insufferable, pompous aholes. [/quote]
