[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here: No, my kids don’t need my permission, but they could ask for my advice. Also this is a general discussion. Most kids are NOT excelling at class work, paid work and volunteering at the same time. Have you ever participated in a real paper worthy research project? It takes a lot of time. [/quote] Not every child is "most kids." Ours is volunteering 10-12 hours per week, working about 10-15 hours per week, and is on their third straight year of making Deans-list (3.5 required, they have straight As).[/quote] I did a 16-hour internship one year and a 24-hour internship on top of taking 18 credits and I was miserable. I did well academically but I had no social life or fun. My major required internships. I had friends working on top of that and they were barely surviving. [/quote]
