<p>The logical fallacies are amazing. (Post 100, and some others: “Because” parents either passively or actively participate in transcript review, “therefore” their children do not have “trusting relationships” with them, and --further-- “therefore” parents are using a college to “make up for that [supposed] defiicency.”)</p>
<p>mini, logic is not your strong suit. And unfortunately you are not the only poster here in that category.</p>
<p>I also think that parents who believe their children (of any age) tell them EVERYTHING, are naive. (And do you tell your spouse literally <em>everything</em>?) They may tell you almost everything, but most people, especially adolescents, like at least a little privacy, and not always for nefarious or suspect reasons. Most often it’s because of a difference in perception between what they genuinely believe a parent needs to know & what a parent in fact needs to know. (quite apart from grades or academics)</p>
