[quote=Anonymous]my parents didn't push - and it was wonderful. I would say they had high expectations, but they had nothing of themselves invested in our success. My life was mine. They didn't pay attention to what classes I took or how I did - perhaps they looked at my report cards sometimes. Managed a 3.0 in high school (in the days before weightings)with little effort and then went on to the big state U college where I took 5 years to graduate though my grades were much better than high school. Parents never once asked how I did in college. Went on to get a ph.d. I worry that I will push to much and that my children will feel they need to please us with their own performance.[/quote]
