[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not surprising that kids think that. Consider the parents who have to get their kids into the right pre-school. That turns into the right k-8 which transitions to the right high school. Those three steps are within reach of a lot of people, the next step is the right college and that's where the kid feels the pressure that has built from things they over heard and internalized from the time there were toddlers. It's also the step with the longest odds and the most factors totally out of their control. Be happy your kid doesn't have that mindset and hope it doesn't rub off on them [/quote] Exactly. Most kids in the world don’t think this way, OP. It’s because you chose the expensive private school or chose the house in the expensive neighborhood so they could go to the rich public school. They are well off but they are, ironically, naive and sheltered.[/quote]
