[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tiger parenting works. Probably at the detriment of their kid's emotional well being, but it works. The mythical "naturally smart and driven kid" is usually a kid with hidden trauma or an undiagnosed personality disorder who manages it with perfectionistic habits. Both tend to unravel at some point in a really dramatic way, usually second semester sophomore year at Princeton. [/quote] Hmm. What if the tiger parenting goal is “only” to get you to Duke, Northwestern, Cornell, Dartmouth or Vanderbilt? Or possibly CMC, Davidson, Midd. Major: No CS or Stem unless kid-led. Career: Easy path to consulting career. Result: I don’t see a lot of unraveling in our circles. Seeing this path more nowadays. Kids seem successful.[/quote]
