There is something about the modern college system that embodies almost everything wrong with our world today. It corrupts not only the parents which we have talked about before but also the children. We can give our kids a major gift by teaching them how insane this game has become making it clear to them that it is not reflective of the values we want to instill in them.
We can tell them now, we can tell them early, that we’d rather them develop themselves as people, find their project, find their people, than optimize themselves to win such a deranged competition. And we can remind them of that timeless Bible verse–the one that asks what good it is to gain the whole world (or anything)if you lose your soul in the process.
