[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This board gives me anxiety. I never realized how crazed parents were and thankful my son followed his interests that landed him at a top school. OP, you need to let your child follow their interests and then when it comes time to do their app, show how they explored those interests . Forget the strict schedule and the insane rigor …. Colleges want to see whose behind the grades. [/quote] What strict schedule and insane rigor? LOL I'm letting DC do their own thing. Unfortunately, DC doesn't have any interests that translate into activities/does not join any clubs or organized activities, and that concerns me. Other than gently nudging, 'Hey what about all of those clubs at school, don't you think you should give one a try?' I've been hands off to the point that I'm just starting to get concerned my laissez-faire approach will someday be something I or DC regrets.[/quote]
