[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Why give more to one sibling than another? If the one worked harder I definitely would." This is a really tough question. Who is to say what working harder means? If S1 has a learning disability and manages a 3.5 uw 4.2 w (so lots of AP classes) GPA with only a 28 ACT score, did they work more or less than S2 who got a 3.5 uw 4.2 w at TJ with a 1580 SAT? What if S1 prepped like crazy and manages a 1500 SAT but only a 3.8 uw GPA and S2 didn't prep at all and got a 1400 SAT but managed a 4.0 uw GPA in the same set of classes. If S1's 1500 gets them into an expensive school that S2's 1400 kept them out of, I'm not sure I would pay even though S1 had a better plan and followed through to make it work.[/quote] Omg, regurgitating all of the stats for your kids is crazy![/quote] Who is to say what working harder is? ^^^That is the question.
