[quote=Anonymous]Here's the thing. Adults have a hard time talking to teens. Going to college is the one thing that most people did that teens also still do even though the whole situation is different now. Most adults also have super fond memories of college so it is fun for them to connect with kids and remember their times. There is no requirement that your child tell the truth. I told my kids to say whatever they want. Tell them you are applying to all the ivies. Tell them you want to be a neurosurgeon or a marine biologist or a poet. Make up answers that are fun for you. No one is gonna follow up. They are just making conversation. Also there is no guarantee that you get to go through life without being uncomfortable. Oh and wait until they are a senior in college and people start asking about jobs. [/quote]
