[quote=Anonymous]The answer is simple -- DMV parents (and really, any parents who are well-educated, UMC, and made it through a highly competitive credentialing process themselves) are WAY too invested in traditional ideas of "success." This thread in particular stood out to me: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1071777.page The OP is a student at an Ivy who (by page 25 or so) is seriously considering suicide. Even though OP clearly hates the Ivy she's at (to the point where the school forced her on a leave of absence due to suicidality), posters are still encouraging her to stay because "the prestige of having an Ivy undergrad will make everything so much better." Ridiculous, insane, and crazy, if you ask me. [/quote]
