[quote=Anonymous]You need to rein in your wife. All the teens I know seem to be in the "college wars" but I've been watching for several years and quite a few who have made into into top 20 are struggling as much or more as those who didn't make the grade. One standout at Duke as MD but divorcing with small child. Another happy at Google. More have returned to state U to get teaching certificates, others perpetually in grad school, living on parents dime. Quite a few seemed to think "getting in" to a top school was the end all and rebelled once they went away. Many have depression issues. Both my kids went to unremarkable small private schools. Both are happy, well adjusted and living in "flyover states." [/quote]
