[quote=Anonymous]Here is what I find reasonable: Kid writes a crappy optional essay. Kid lets you read it. You say, "Larla, it's not bad, but it could use a little work. Want me to make some suggestions?" Kid says yes, you give it a gentle edit; or kid says no, you back off and let them face the consequences. OR, yes, you ask an outsider to offer some comments. Pay them. That's it. You can be a very supportive parent without writing their essays for them or paying hundreds of dollars to a content farm. [/quote]
