[quote=Anonymous]Didn't read the thread. Just want to say, OP, please get some therapy. Your child sounds very centered, and you sound completely off. Smart kids know what's best for them. I know a kid who applied ED to a very good private university. He had great stats, likely could have gotten in anywhere. He chose this school because he liked the atmosphere, met some professors, liked them, liked the location. His mom, who, like you, didn't go to a top school, was disappointed he didn't "reach for the top" school-wise. But I really respect this kid. He knew what he liked, what he needed and what he wanted. He didn't choose prestige, which as far as I can tell, does not feed anyone emotionally. Prestige is all about how other people think; it has nothing to do with the individual in question. Sounds like you have a great kid, OP. Find a good therapist, and work out your issues without imposing them on your child. [/quote]
