[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for the responses. Looking back at my post, I realize it makes it sound like I'm focused on education and college admissions, and that's not accurate. I was just listing some things I think about that contribute to my general sense of worry. Reading these responses, I think one reason I worry more than others is that I don't have that supportive family structure you are talking about. My spouse and I come from challenging backgrounds and are more likely to be asked to help parents and siblings with serious issues (health problems, divorce, addiction, mental healthy) than to get any form of support. I really feel like I am on my own a lot in terms of parenting and there are so may things to think about. I wish I could give my child a supportive network of extended family but I can't. We have friends, of course, but it's not the same.[/quote]
