[quote=Anonymous]OP - my kids are in college now - and many of the friends I made when our kids were babies and have stayed friends with all these years had the intense qualities you are describing. We are still friends with almost all of them to this day -- and I can honestly tell you that there is no rhyme or reason as to which kids turn out most successful in HS (public/parochial/independent) or college (state/private/ivy) given the parental style or even involvement in sports/academics/testing. Its sort of interesting actually. Don't overthink what others are doing - just do you - keep your head down and know that in the end a lot goes into how a kid "turns out" - and it has way less to do with you than you would probably like to think.[/quote]
