[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This board is full of toxic tiger moms pushing their kids into finance and CS. And kids from college confidential trolling. It’s a train wreck of toxicity and makes me hate our shallow, vapid, greedy, materialistic culture. [/quote] Agree. I see it as the parents’ insecurity driving the insanity. Believe in your kids! I raised my kids to have the skills they will need to succeed in the world (and those are not skills you learn in Kumon or a cram class). One of my kids is a junior at a very good college and can already see how her soft skills are paying off in research and internships. The other is a HS senior and has chosen a school that is often denigrated on here because it was the right fit (turned down higher ranking schools). That child will be unstoppable because she has EQ off the charts.[/quote]
