[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ this is new. It’s not like 10, 20, 30 years ago. [/quote] Maybe it's the effect of everyone pushing their kids so hard in HS to get into an "elite" school, and then the pressure continues at the elite colleges as well. And if they don't get into an elite school, they feel like they have failed and their life is over. I suspect much of the mental health issues are driven by our culture of keeping kids constantly under pressure and it's sad because it is not necessary.
