[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is his first big decision of his adult life. He needs to own it. If he owns it, he'll work hard to prove his decision was a good one. He will work hard to prove it to you. That is what you want. That is what you want above all else.[/quote] +1 This. AND...if he goes to the other school begrudgingly, he will not do well. Or the minute he has an issue, it will be YOUR fault, according to him. All throughout his life it will be "(bitching) if you hadn't made me go to (higher ranked school)." So let it go, OP. And OP, btw, I totally get it. You want (your perception of what is ) the best for your child; we all do. I'm very sympathetic to you. It will be ok.[/quote]
