[quote=Anonymous]When I went to college, back in the early 80s, my parents picked my college for me. I was ranked 5th in my class at a nationally-ranked public high school in New Jersey. But I really was a shy, immature young lady who was very interested in learning, but not very interested in actual living. I didn't resent at all their involvement, and in fact appreciated it. It worked out well for me. College helped me grow up. My parents chose well. I think the amount of parental involvement depends a lot on the kid. Some kids are ready to do most of it themselves. Some would still benefit from very active help from their parents. All of you know your kids well. Do what seems to be right for that kid, not some hypothetical average kid, or the kid you hoped you had raised.[/quote]
