[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Needs of schools & society will not always be inline with your child's interest and gifts! Get used to it. Money talks so when there is immense interest in sports - that is where the interest will be focused. They can find thousands of kids that get 4.0 and 1600 SAT/36 ACT but only a hand full of kids that can throw 90+ mph or run a 4.4 40-yard dash. Most of kids are not that unique. Do your best and teach them to be happy with what they can achieve. Its the parents buying into the marketing of schools that says you have to go to a T20 school to be successful - that is BS.[/quote] So what? My kid can win an athletic competition. This is not going to help her master organic chemistry.[/quote]
