Response to "Parents and Grades"

I know so many kids whose parents are exactly like this, and although they also graduated top in their class. While this is a very highly regarded accomplishment, if it means you had to suffer for four years of your life I don't think its worth it at all. Some were rewarded with money. All I ever got was a pat on the back. Parents need to stop living vicariously through their children and just be satisfied with their happiness.
