[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s coming from the parents. Yes, the low-income children have real hardships. But their parents aren’t out there expecting them to be class president, captain of a varsity team, get a 4.0 and get into Princeton. Upper income parents are a special kind of messed up lately.[/quote] My sister is in the rich private school world and her extreme fixation on college admissions is craaaazy. It does make me think I need to do more though. But the way she talks about it, it’s as if her kid (sweet, funny, tall, organized, bright, good grades, self-directed) is on the brink of disaster because she’s not in line for the top colleges.
