[quote=FlyerInHi]You guys are raising super kids. I’m having anxiety just reading. I don’t think I could ever compete.
Did anyone consider a very tough boarding academy? How about an elite high school in Switzerland? Start saving as soon as the child is born.[/quote]
Before we had kids my husband used to joke about waving to the kids as they went from boarding school to summer camp. Our oldest is approaching college and guess which one of them is having the most difficulty with that? Babies change everything. A switch goes off in your head and it never goes back. This was a very interesting study: http://news.sciencemag.org/biology/2015/04/love-hormone-turns-mothers-moms
The most striking conclusion: “We hypothesise that changes in gene expression, as well as excitatory and inhibitory synapses lock in these changes for the lifetime of the animal,” he adds. The changes that this refer to are maternal behaviors that were permanently induced through oxytocin injections given to mice who had never had pups. Similar changes (though milder) are seen in humans, both male and female.
Which is a long way of saying, few people with kids think about boarding school
