What a great article, I got to read the first 4 pages before it wanted me to login.
I could go on and on about my own experiences growing up and why I really feel that this person has a good attitude. I graduated high school in 2003 and it was amazing the level of expectation we all had on us. I of course rebelled and still have not taken a college course..mainly just because the things that are important to me are family. Being a latch-key kid who never got to see my mom because of graveyard shifts, I want to be able to stay at home. Career is not my main focus, which is like living on Mars to my peers. I don't have any children yet, but reading this is great because I don't want to become brainwashed in this LeapFrog world and cause the anxiety that I had about intelligence and not being in the Gifted and Talented programs onto my children. :)
