[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hypothetically, if your child does NOT want to go to TJ but ends up admitted to the class of 2029, should you, as the parent, force them into going anyway? Yes / no. Why / why not?[/quote] No. At some point, the kid is going to have to do the work themselves. You can't (and don't want to) be constantly hounding them to get stuff done - they'll never learn how to manage their own workload. And TJ's workload is big. I also understand the mental health aspect of the workload can present a challenge - your kid really needs to want to be there if they're going to succeed. If they don't want to go, let them go to a base school. They'll be able to succeed in life from there too. [/quote]
