[quote=Anonymous]OP, why do you assume that all upper middle class teens are the exact same person with the exact same level of intelligence, organizational skills, personality, motivation levels, natural ability, etc.? My teens are individual human beings with their own strengths and weaknesses, desires, goals, maturity levels, etc., that have no link to our income. One struggles with anxiety, one struggles with ADHD - neither one is built for the type of pressure that goes along with getting all As in all the hardest classes and for one of them, I don't believe it would have been possible even if I had spent thousands of $$$ on tutors. That kid is now in college and doing quite well. No one cares that she worked her butt off for a C in honors Chemistry in 10th grade and you shouldn't either.[/quote]
