[quote=Anonymous]How did this start out being a thread about how seniors are doing and turn into parenting bashing and judgment? It's "crappy" or "bad" parenting that admissions have become so competitive and kids are frustrated? It's parental expectations that kids are bummed about not getting into a school they are clearly contenders for? (& being bummed about not getting in is not that same as expecting to get in -- we expected deferral, hoped for acceptance, prepared for rejection). It's parents' fault every other kid seems to have started their own tutoring nonprofit during covid and your kid is stressed that their service isn't enough? This is nuts. Can we just support one another's kids here and back off the hair-trigger judgments? I think that's a first step to reducing stress![/quote]
