The REAL Cost of Sending Your Kid to A High-Achieving School
Here is my interview with a distinguished education and parenting expert, Dr. Suniya Luthar
Sending our kids to a competitive and achieving school seems to be the GOAL for many parents
We naively believe that if we send our kids to the BEST private or Ivy League school, EVERYTHING will be taken care of Our kids will have a successful and happy life
WRONG
Research has shown, children attending high-achieving schools are actually having MORE mental health issues
They have the same level of mental health issues as kids in poverty, foster care, OR a parent in prison These are some groundbreaking findings based on Dr. Suniya Luthar's decades of research
Dr. Luthar received her Ph.D. from Yale University
She is a Professor Emerita at Columbia University
And the Co-Founder & Chief Research Officer at Authentic Connections
