[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do you want them to be high achievers? Ask yourself sincerely. Is it an ego thing for you? I don't care if my kids are high achievers. I want them to be happy, whatever form that takes for them. If they have the drive to get there then I'll nurture it as best I can but you can't create that from thin air. [/quote] Because we tigers [/quote] NP here. This sentiment is ridiculous (though I take your response in jest). OP, if you and your DH are bright and accomplished, then you know how to duplicate those efforts. It is not something tangible, necessarily. Unless you are into backbiting and backstabbing, I suppose (re: GPA and SAT, etc.). Allow your child to be their own person. Don't pick their school and major, that is just pathetic. [/quote]
