[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I noticed every other kid at my child’s high school founding a business or nonprofit or writing a book. At first, I didn’t k[b]now this was being done to get into college. Since so many are doing this—and then never touching that business or nonprofit after gaining college acceptance—I am not sure what is truly remarkable anymore. In fact, I’m skeptical. My own kid is VP of a club, PT job, camp counselor, varsity for 4 years, club sport and other things. Many here would say that’s unremarkable. My kid also has hobbies for which they have not sought awards. [b]The above doesn’t tell the whole story. There are no national awards for comforting a scared camper, defending a friend against bullies, or dealing with immature/angry adults in their job in a patient and polite way.
