[quote=Anonymous]The biggest thing my parents did was raise me with the expectation that I would go to college. My father was a professor and my mother was accomplished in STEM. This was back in the 70s/80s and my parents were otherwise fairly hands off. They paid for a great state education for me (UCSD). Given that I was such a high school screw up they were relieved. DH and I are very involved and frankly I love the whole process. I am trying very hard to be well informed but not pressure our two DDs, that are in middle and high school. I try to use my knowledge of my own history to know that the world doesn’t end if you get off the straight and narrow path.[/quote]
