[quote=Anonymous]The way to address it is to dial way, way down the parental expectations. I had a friend sum up the feelings of being a wealthy kid from accomplished parents: “if you succeed, it will be no big deal because obviously you had everything handed to you. If you don’t succeed at something, wow you’re really a loser because you had all the advantages.” So kids with a lot of family pressure can feel like there is no hope. Yes it’s great to have so much money, but at least the middle class kids don’t feel like they will let their parents and teachers down if they have to go to a *gasp* state school.[/quote]
