[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Totally get the criticism.  You’re right and my apologies.  I think most trades are beyond certainly me or my kids in terms of skills and other very positive attributes.  And yeah, the “competitive private school” comment was a mistake.  Very sorry- I’m just in a bad place tonight and I sincerely apologize to anyone I offended.  [/quote]

NP.  You didn't offend me, OP.  I'm with you.  DCUM will make parents of average kids feel like their kids are actually in need of remediation.  When you read post after post insisting a 3.7 is not a good GPA, it can really mess with your mind.  I have to remind myself, this forum is probably used by a tiny, tiny group of people, most of whom have kids with sky-high stats.  It's unthinkable to many of them that their student would ever have a *gasp* B in any class, much less an ACT of less than 30.  The reality is that these people are living in a bubble.  I've gotten some really good information here, but have mostly learned to ignore the clueless posters.[/quote]
