[quote=Anonymous]You did a great job and so did your son. Your family should be very proud of everyone’s hard work that brought him to this point. However, it isn’t a competition. Yes, you won the war, but it wasn’t against other parents, but against life. Other kids might go to lower ranked colleges or even skip college altogether, and also be winners. Some of those kids may be as smart, or smarter, than your child. Some may eventually be as successful, or more successful, than your child. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, and there are far too many individual variables, let alone the randomness that life presents, to make a direct comparison. I hope everyone’s kids will find their own happiness, whatever form it might take. [/quote]
