[quote=Anonymous]My spouse and I have 5 HYPS degrees between us, including professional schools. Definition of academic overachievers and have done very well, career-wise. But we don't push our kid to be us, because we don't want them to suffer the same type of tremendous anxiety that we have seen in so many of our classmates and friends, both in and out of school. Lots of very successful, very unhappy people in the top echolons. We are fortunate enough to be UMC so we can afford to give our kid a choice about their life, and focus on balance, not just on achievement. The gold ring is not always worth it.[/quote]
