Lots of kids never study or even try on ACT/SAT. No my fault.
Not sure what your point is here. I didn't even know you could study for the ACT/SAT when I was in HS. Did not find out about "studying for the ACT/SAT" until my 2nd year in college. Yet, I still had respectable scores and had several scholarship opportunities.

Why does your idea of a perfect life not include anything about God or faith? ACT scores and gpa have nothing to do with life’s success or being a decent human being.

Same. We had zero counseling in HS. No clue what to expect.

We didn’t go wrong, have almost all of that…albeit in somewhat of a bubble.
Everyone sees what they want. I never pushed my son to be an overachiever in school…frick working in a cubicle.
He is a badass athlete though. Much cooler.

They do. Shitty voices are being amplified that run counter to what most people want.
And the proggy crewdepoo chimes in right on cue.

this, the night before my ACT test we played Parkway at their gym, I scored 26, one of the cheerleaders asked if I would drive her home after the game

Society lost its moral compass and or the moral compass changed directions away from the nuclear family to self entitlement, look at me, I’m a victim, I want to be famous, clout chasing shite, LGBTQ+ is the “new norm”

I have a granddaughter who is a natural. Just finished freshman year of HS and academics are a breeze. She's also good at art. Shes the only frosh who aced the LEAP test in her parish.
Just want her to be happy, not wealthy.
I am not pushing one bit. I have raised her as much as her parents, and have more influence. She will do what she wants to do, and will be good at it.

Summer 1992.
I did acid and got in a fight the night before taking the ACT at Trafton(now Dunham) in Baton Rouge.

it was my mother(no pics,) who told me there's really no studying for the ACT, ironically she was a teacher

I just try to instill in my son to be his own person. Do stuff that genuinely makes him happy. The next few years are going to be tough on him…just want him to face it with self worth and maybe, just maybe a little chip on his shoulder.

It started in the early 20th century when secular leftist ideology began to take root in America. It’s taken them over a century but they’ve all but realized their goal of destroying America as we know it and replacing it with a Marxist totalitarian state.
