[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having gone to Harvard and then another Ivy for med school, I couldn’t possibly have expectations for my kids to do same/better in terms of “prestige”. It would be cruel and unusual mental pressure. Between my spouse and I, we have degrees from or turned down HYPSM, Columbia, UPenn, Brown, Hopkins, Northwestern, NYU, UCLA and Berkeley. [b]I feel bad for my kids having that kind of expectation to live up to[/b]. [/quote] Such an expectation would only come from within your own family, ie - you. So, if they have it, that's on you.[/quote]
