[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a high school English teacher, so I read a lot of college app essays/materials. MANY parents purchase projects for their children to help in the college admissions game. Many parents pay for someone to write articles or creative pieces to be published in their child's name. I could name one family whose name you would know/recognize who blatantly purchased an accomplishment that was falsified and presented as the work of their daughter. And many more garden variety amitious upper middle class parents who do the same. [/quote] +1. As a parent, I have seen this happen too. Two parents had their kids ‘write and publish’ books during high school. One kid used his dad’s company/work to claim as his own start up and got a patent, appeared in news papers etc.. Parents who are hungry for prestige do all sorts of things..[/quote]
