<p>It definitely should be your child's choice... He or she has to go there for a long while, and you don't.</p>
<p>My mother let me make all my decisions, understanding that I had a very helpful counselor to aid my decision. I wanted to go to Trinity at one point, and when they told me I need not apply, I was kinda upset. After going to visit all my other schools, I found a school I liked more even though it wasn't as good, and I don't regret the decision AT ALL, especially since it didn't harm my chances of college acceptance.</p>
<p>Let your child decide, but make sure the decision is well informed. Your child should go visit each school again if possible.</p>
