In particular there is a thread for parents with kids graduating HS in 2019. The thread was started in 2015 - yes 2015, when the kids were in 9th grade.
I skipped forward a couple hundred pages and started reading and these parents are certifiable - their poor kids.

Oh get over yourself. Just what is wrong with a thread being started during the kids’ Freshman year of HS? Plenty of questions come up during the HS years such as, will colleges care if my kid takes two years of biology and skips out on chemistry? College is a really big deal. It makes total and complete sense for parents to have enough concern over it to create a thread in early HS.
I'm on college threads because, deep down, I'd sort of like to go to college again, as long as I don't have to take any tests, turn in papers or worry about grades.
I'm sure my son will take care of his college search and application process himself, and let me know where he's going sometime before he starts freshman year.
