[quote=Anonymous]"If we had sent her to an average high school -- we're convinced she would have turned out average since no one would have pushed her to succeed." What does this even mean?...average? My children are not average no matter where they go to school and what they enjoy doing. They both have distinct qualities that may not be academic that make them special, unique people. It is this obsession with academic/sports achievement in DC that makes me want to run far away. For boys and for girls. Some pushing is fine but to not take family vacations and be unable to just chill out together in front of a movie every now and again is just sad. What will you remember on your deathbed...how great all that trigonometry homework was or that memorable family vacation you took? Let's get our priorities straight here.[/quote]
