[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Here’s where I see the biggest predictor of future success: making your kids get a d*** job. Too many private kids sit at home in the summer “studying” while their public counterparts have to hustle with 3 jobs. Teaches work ethic, multitasking, money management, self-motivation. College admissions people aren’t dumb, and they know who is set up well to succeed. [/quote] A friend’s son worked at a pizza restaurant starting middle school and until graduation. He worked quite a bit of hours, diligently, saving his income. Meanwhile he was getting As in his public even though he didn’t have a lot of time for homework. He saved like twenty thousand of dollars by the time he graduated and his work ethic was impressive. He got a very big scholarship, almost full rid, to go to a local college because of his high GPA and test scores. Anyway, he dropped out of the first year because he didn’t have the study habits and college was hard.[/quote]
