[quote=Anonymous]OP I come from an ivy league obsessed family, though even they are disgusted by what the ivy league has turned into. They are status obsessed though. My oldest has high functioning autism and a mild learning disability, but they refuse to accept that. We have needed to be more aloof and create distance to protect our teen and focus on what really matters- a good fit, well being, happiness, connection. I'm pretty sure my mother is dying inside that she can no longer compete with people bragging now about their grandkids going off to the top colleges. I wouldn't be surprised if she flat out lies and embellishes to save face. Not my problem. We love our kids and we have perspective and decency.[/quote]
