[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they have sacrificed so much to "get where they are," that it is incredibly threatening to find out maybe it was not necessary...or even the path that was best for their family. No, they have to insult reasonable posts like this, rather than accept that their costly approach may not have been necessary (or rewarding in the ways that really count).[/quote] Or maybe their experience is that their kid had opportunities at or as a result of attending a prestige school they wouldn't otherwise have. You're the one who isn't allowing for the possibility that the name brand matters. No, you have to insult them and call them horrible people, rather than accept that your approach may have short-changed your kid (or denied them opportunities or rewards in ways that really count). At the end of the day, live your own life and let other people live theirs. OP doesn't have some magical answer.[/quote]
