[quote=Anonymous]Have her fail at something and dont actively help but be near. Learning how to recover from something before college really really helps manage expectations but also be aware of how to move on. Be it, extra curricular, course, friendship going south etc. Teens think they are invincible and everything will work itself out without effort on their part (not everyone of course but some especially from nice supportive environments where everything was easy for them). I know of 3 people who flamed out freshman and second year from college (some top some other) and DH almost did but righted course which was hard. All were top students, athletes, club presidents in HS and seemed to sail through to their first choice schools. [/quote]
