[quote=Anonymous]I found this teen's story on reddit. [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/1qis7ih/got_into_ivy_ed_dont_want_to_go/[/url] "But emotionally I hate how controlled my life has been. My mom made me start working on a project with my little sister and it's really flaring tensions in the house. She didn't even ask if I'd do it; it was an implicit assumption that I'd help my family out for college apps because they're soooo important. I thought I'd be done with all the fake college passion stuff when I got in. Now I have to work with my sister who can't do anything and everything falls to me. I never asked for any of this. I'm mostly doing it out of responsibility and a desire to make my mother happy right now, but it's not like I could stop if I said no."[/quote]
