[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a former high school teacher, I know of a lot of A students in high school who were hand-held by parents and ended up doing quite poorly in college.   [/quote]

This doesn’t surprise me at all. [/quote]

See, I find this odd AF.  To "know" this, [b]the teacher needs to (1) figure out which kids in high school are "hand held" by their parents [/b]and (2) follow up on those kids to learn their college GPAs.

I don't know any teacher who's ever done that.  Certainly none of my kids' teachers have any idea how any of them did in college.

This is just another example of someone talking out her a$$ because it's the way she wants the world to be.

Trust me, we know. All teachers can tell exactly which parents are helicopter parents.

Also, the fact that none of your kids' teachers kept up with them is not something I'd brag about. It means they were forgettable and didn't make an impression on any of their teachers. I have followed the academic careers and subsequent careers of many former students. I have connected former students with friends and colleagues in their interested fields for internships.

I allow former students to follow me on social media after graduation. This is how we see what's up and keep up with them.
