[quote=Anonymous][quote]I wasn't aware life was a race.[/quote] Life is not a race, but it is pretty un-fufilling to spend your 20s and 30s feeling like you aren't progressing on with your life and the expectations are for you to be in extended adolescence. At least for some kids. [quote]Most people work for 40+ years, often 50 years. I feel no need to worry about my children missing one year of work.[/quote] If you see my next comment I pointed out that jumpstarting your career is on par with ridiculousness as holding people back to give them an "edge," IMO. I mean if it really is the right choice for your child, whatever, but I just think that upper middle class parenting has this desire to delay the next step and the next step and the next step to the point where no one starts "adult life" until their mid 30s. Starting in kindergarden.[/quote]
