[quote=Anonymous]From another dcum thread: DCUM parents on these threads seem to sort into two groups: 1. Kids are raw dough to be shaped, pounded, and cooked into the right shape under high heat. The best kids thrive. The others fall back. Too bad. It's a competitive world. 2. Where can my kids have the best life experience and still do well enough academically to succeed in life later on? The two camps DO NOT share any common ground, apparently. I pity the kids in Group 1. Some will succeed in life because they were driven, but many more will just be anxious wrecks now and as adults. I think WIS gets little love because the bilingual IB is beyond a stressful grind, so people who want a low-stress environment don’t like it, but it’s not got the prestige that the competitive parents look for. Kids get into good colleges though.[/quote]
