[quote=Anonymous]This has effectively become a forum to discuss AAP (even if the name is VA Public Schools) and the people here are self selected based on having an interest in AAP. So yeah the interest in AAP on this forum is not representative of FCPS parents in general. But this type of intensity / obsessiveness does seem characteristic of many parents of our generation - can see it across many youth sports. And looking at it that way it probably at least makes more sense to be obsessed with your kid's academic progress than his travel baseball career. Now having a nice healthy perspective on things would be best but many of us (me included) for whatever deep psychological reason have a hard time doing that.[/quote]
