[quote=Anonymous]I'm curious about families who have one child at an Ivy/T20 and the rest at other schools. How did you manage competition and comparison between your kids or pressure on them to emulate their siblings in achievement? I have younger kids but one is definitely more academically-oriented/high-achieving at this point and it's been stressful (especially between twins). Also, how does birth order play a role? I know one older sibling who goes to therapy because her younger siblings do better at school and sports than she does. I know younger siblings who are in the same math classes as their older siblings. On the other hand, successful older children might set a high bar that people expect their siblings to emulate.
