[quote=Anonymous]So many parents play the "if you don't get into the right preschool, then it's all over" game, which is followed by grade school, middle school, high school, and now, college. If you don't do every single step correctly and on cue, then life is all over for you. This attitude is all over these comments. I know young adults who have been raised like this who are afraid of their own shadow. They cannot make a decision. Even simple decisions stymie them for days. They have to ask for advice, which is asking for direction. Because they're too scared. The most successful people I know screwed up early, learned from it, and grew. Work on her fear. Tell her you'll still love her no matter what she picks.[/quote]
