[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]This is a great thread to read today... -a parent who is not sure that she wants her child to get in to a magnet.[/quote] It does sound funny. But my daughter got into a magnet yet doesn't want to attend b/c so many kids end up with severe anxiety. She said her classes are challenging enough and she doesn't want to only focus on school. Maybe I have the greatest underachiever??? But she certainly does well in school and obviously knows her threshold. [/quote] My child chose to leave HGC between 4/5th and chose not to go to Takoma Park Magnet. She is extremely bright but also social and is happier with friends and enjoying some free time. Unless your child enjoys the non-stop work and challenge, it could be an anxious 4 years. No diploma and certain college acceptances is worth leaving your entire 4 year high school life in the bedroom studying. [/quote]
