[quote=Anonymous]<<The amount of time and money parents seem to spend on getting their kid into a college that they wouldn’t get in on their own is astounding>> I have hard of kids who crashed and burned under this scenario. The parents rigged the system so the child could go into a school that was above her head. She was so stressed and felt inadequate because she knew that the other students were in a different league academically. She dropped out of school and it had mental health consequences. Some of these kids also cheat or use drugs to enhance their performance. How about you figure out which school is a good fit for your child. Then, support him or her in applying to said school. Buying their way in is NOT a formula for their academic success, mental health or self esteem.[/quote]
