[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I applied to college without assistance from my parents 20 years ago. Why do parents feel the need to help kids now? Is the process more complicated or is helicoptering just too ingrained? [/quote] Me too. My parents were only high school graduates and we lived in rural area. They and I had no idea that you were supposed to visit schools. I applied only to the Univ of MD because I had been on a band trip there and application fees were expensive for us. I have a PhD now and think kids are too coddled. [/quote]
