[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dunno why kids are so disappointed? You need to do a better job setting expectations with them. My kids chose safeties that they could get excited about and applied early so those acceptances were in hand by January. Visit those schools, get excited about them so that if it comes to that being the best available option, a day or two of being bummed is replaced by excitement that they are going to college and one that they are going to and can start at planning for. Both of my kids planned for the worst but hoped for the best.[/quote] +1. This is the way to do it. The old method of 3 or 4 reaches, 3 or 4 possibles and 3 or 4 likely’s still works. [/quote]
