[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We made a chart with the schools and what DC wanted in a college. They then gave each school a ranking from 1-5 in each category. It didn't really matter what the final score was, it was more to get DC thinking about what they thought was important and making the decision on their own. Of course DH and I were there to guide and answer questions, but it was their decision in the end[/quote] We did something similar, and also engaged in discussion and sharing of opinions. We always grounded our opinions in as objective a way as possible (you've said you value X, it seems to me that's more relevant to school A than B). DC wanted the more expensive school, which was still within budget. So we also assured them that it was ok to pick the pricier school (for objective reasons). [/quote]
