[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]op, we are similar to you and your DH in terms of HHI and “doing better” than our parents. We feel the opposite of you. We don’t care about the race to the top for college admissions. When I think about my kid “doing better than us”, I hope that means less work and less stress and doing something that they love or improves the world, not more money or more prestige. We push our kid to be hardworking and curious and to have perseverance, kindness, and empathy. If our kid is the kind of self starting kid who ends up at a T20, so be it — but we don’t expect it and we aren’t pushing towards it. [/quote] THIS. If money and financial security doesn't buy you this, what is the point?[/quote]
