[quote=Anonymous]Instead of thinking about college and how to steer your kids, focus on yourself instead. Model everyday positive habits like work ethics, showing up on time, following through on a commitment, being ready for work every morning stress free instead of rushing and driving while checking your facebook, staying active and going to bed on time. Maintain strong bonds with friends and family. Never gossip, never envy or get jealous. Never make excuses. If you do all this, your kids will turn out great. None of the strategizing and private college coaching in later years can compete with a kid who grew up with all these foundational values and skills. But OP, if you're thinking about T10 colleges with kids still in elementary school, I suspect you may already be on the wrong track. Do some self-reflection and rethink your priorities. [/quote]
