[quote=Anonymous]I let my child pick her reaches, but also said if ~90% of the kids who apply there are rejected...what outcome are you most like to experience? She said rejection (which is true), and I said “Right (pause to make sure that sank in...),”but it is not zero...and it is fine to aim high, so I support your decision” Point being that getting rejected from a reach should not come as some big shattering shock, unless you have not made sure to discuss probabilities an advance with your child. (Or up to now you have insulated them from reality, by pulling lots of strings behind the scenes). This really is a growth experience, just not the one you hoped for.[/quote]
