Students’ pressure sometimes comes from their parents.(1)_________________________.For one thing, parents are often not aware of the kinds of problems their children face.They don’t realize that the competition is keener,that the required standards of work are higher,and that their children may not be prepared for the change.(2)_________________________.At their kindest, they may gently inquire why John or Mary isn’t doing better,whether he or she is trying as hard as he or she should,and so on. At their worst, they may threaten to take their children out of college, or cut off funds.(3)_________________________.In their involvement and identification with their children,they forget that everyone is different and that each person must develop in his or her own way.They forget that their children, who are now young adults,must be the ones responsible for what they do and what they are.
