[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My grandfather was a war refugee with PTSD who was an alcoholic and lived in public housing and couldn’t hold a job. My dad was at one point on a list of folks considered for a hard science Nobel. Don’t make up narratives about what you can and can’t accomplish.[/quote] Also my dad didn’t even go to a fancy undergrad btw. (He did go to a respected but not top PhD program and then fancy, top post-docs. But he wasn’t identified as a talent until early 20s and had only decent high school grades - not surprising given fraught home life).[/quote]
