Julie Lythcott-Haims Quotes
Wanting Our Kids To Be Successful Is Natural," Says Palo Alto Psychiatrist Stacy Budin. "But The Less Healthy Part Comes From The Hyper Drive In Our Communities For Kids To Set Themselves Apart And Shine In One Way Or Another, Or In All Ways. There's So Much Pressure For Kids To Achieve That It Can Become The Focus Of The Mother's Life To Ensure That High Achievement Happens. Some Mothers Seem To Have Nothing But Their Kids' SATs And Accomplishments To Talk About. Then, When College Admission Offers Come, The Competitiveness, Bragging, And Comparisons Are Hard For All But The Few Who Have The Most To Brag About. It's Not Great For Kids And It's Not Great For Mothers."32 And What's More, This Great Achievement Race Is All Calibrated To A College Admission System That Is Very, Very Broken.
