"I think it depends on the child."

Agreed. My hubby and I are able to give our son more than we ever had. He's a good kid on the honor roll....which he works very very hard to accomplish.

I was wondering why so often goodness is associated with good grades? Not saying that your child isn't good AND smart, but our society puts too much emphasis on grades and education and not on the quality of the person's morals and conscience. If I had to choose, I would prefer a doofus with a heart of gold.
