[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Expecting kids to do their best and work hard is different from "You need to get all As and at least 1500 on the SATs or you will be a failure" Supporting kids in finding their strengths and choosing a career path based on them is different from "You need to major in Engineering or CS or we won't pay for college" [/quote] +1, you can teach perseverance, resilience, and a strong work ethic without an HYSP or bust attitude. Many kids who driven by their parents to achieve, achieve, achieve burn out and have major mental health issues that can make it hard for them to do perfectly normal things like develop stable relationships, become parents, or build a career.[/quote]
