Advice/question on legacies

<p>@mathmom, wow… LOL do we need counseling? </p>

<p>I just wanted to add another layer to the story to get an accurate answer… I am not making myself crazy… I asked for a friend whose child goes to school with a young women who has become quite the avid drinker/pot smoker. These young women have been at this same school since pre-k. My friend feels that her admission d/t legacy is a shoe in. And I told her that this isn’t necassarily the case! </p>

<p>She is in a school where most of the parents are highly educated(Dr’s, lawyers, Phd’s, scientists, college professors, stock brokers etc) and my friend, does not… so she feels very intimidated when her daughter, who works her a** off(inside and outside of school) but has big money and legacy status working against her! I wanted to post knowing that you guys know so much more than I ever will… to allay her fears…</p>

<p>And yes, we all have character flaws…I was just trying to be nice in my OP…</p>
