[quote=Anonymous]It is and isn't a skewed view. Absolutely, 14:52 is right in terms of teachers and fellow students -- they respect kids for who they are and don't give a damn about where they want to or will go to college. But I think it's also true that the kind of parents you see posting here have a noticeable impact on school culture, especially during junior and senior year. They drive their own poor kids crazy and enough of them are on the same wave length that kids whose families aren't this way end up affected (e.g. spending a lot of time talking their friends off the ledge, believing some of the BS that passes as conventional wisdom, being alienated by the madness and wanting to steer clear of top colleges because of it).[/quote]
