[quote=Anonymous][quote]Just ignore the emails if they bother you. I don't know, my kid has super easy access to get to work (unpaid) in the area he wants through my brother, who is a research scientist in the field he wants to work in. But kids who don't have those connections have to try to get experience somehow. They don't in high school. The only reason they do it now is to look good to highly selective colleges. [/quote] I agree that is why they do it, but the reality is that since my son has the advantage of having an uncle in the field, due to our family having money to send him to a good college, among other things, he walks into having that with zero effort. So I can't criticize someone trying to hustle to get the same.[/quote]
