[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel so bad for their kids, being treated like glitter sparkle achievement ponies so the parents get some bragging rights. Let's just be honest about it. College admissions has become all about the parents, not their kids. The problem is that the kids figure it out eventually, if they haven't already. Then they collapse into a puddle of goo.[/quote] Basing this off my own and their small group of high achieving friends, it was all kid driven. I think this dynamic is more an issue for the next rung down trying to keep up if you will. It came easily in high school and wasn’t forced. Don’t know if this is representative of all, but for sure in our experience. [/quote]
