[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The definition of high achieving is being the best in something! If a kid didn’t make the JV team by 15 then for the purpose of resume building for competitive colleges it is probably best to cut back on the sport and redirect that time to something that they can get a significant achievement in. That’s common sense surely. That doesn’t mean they can’t play the odd pick up game at the park with friends at the weekend to have fun.[/quote] Is the purpose to raise a child who is high-achieving as a child, or is high-achieving as an adult? Because working hard to be the best that you can be as a child (not being THE BEST IN THE WORLD) is what leads to being a high-achieving adult. But sure, raise a child who is high-achieving as a child, that will work out well.[/quote]
