[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. Why would I want to get rid is a great child? Quite the opposite, indeed. [/quote] So why are you applying for college at 13? I find it hard to believe that neither FCPS nor a DC area private (since you are apparently able to pay private tuition at Mary Baldwin) can meet your DC's educational needs w/AAP, TJ, AP, IB, etc. Especially since you can use NOVA & Mason to supplement, and also take classes through CTY, get support through Davidson scholars, etc. MB might be the best of bad options for a brilliant kid from a low SES, poor performing school system. But, FCPS kids are winning all sorts of national academic competitions (AMC 10, Westinghouse, Odyssey of the Mind, We the People, national Merit, etc) That means that either you are trying to offload your DC or that you are applying knowing she would never attend, just for bragging rights. Which is fu**ed up even by tiger mom/ overachieving FCPS standards. [/quote]
