[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Neither me nor my DH attended an ivy league school. We both have flexible well paying jobs with good work life balance. We have a great life and it's what we want for our kid. Not a crazy high pressure job that will destroy their health.[/quote]
Another low iq person exposed.[/quote]

DP. Nothing about that post is low IQ. It is simply stating a different preference.

Low IQ is not being able to understand the difference.[/quote]
Trying is inference using anecdotal instead of statistical evidence IS low iq.[/quote]

Except, again, that’s not what that poster was doing.

This whole discussion seems to be going over your head so you may want to bow out gracefully.[/quote]
I am the PP with the flexible well paying job. I often encounter Ivy League grads with attitudes like the "low IQ" poster. They don't do well and don't last in my sector.[/quote]

I doubt the “low IQ” poster attended an Ivy League school. More likely a striver parent on the low end of the Dunning-Kruger curve.

Someone who attended an Ivy or knew enough people who attended an Ivy would be less likely to believe that the Ivies (or Ivy+) are the only golden ticket.[/quote]

Definitely not in my experience with Ivy League grads. Even the ones that do relatively well in the workplace have narcissistic traits that hinder their ability to lead effectively[/quote]

Why would they need to be narcissists when they so clearly live rent free in your head in perpetuity?

I’m sorry you feel so disrespected in comparison but then you likely haven’t done anything to warrant the respect of others. [/quote]

Only people like Donald Trump, Rick DeSantis, Brett Kavanaugh, Elon Musk, Ted Cruz and their ilk have achievements significant enough to warrant the respect of others.[/quote]
