Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Yeah I understand people who get aggravated with people who brag on their children. My mom actually gets aggravated with me for bragging on her own grandchild lol. She told my wife that I am obsessed with my daughter's future. Well....yeah, I can't think of anything better for me to be obsessed about.

I can not help myself with my daughter. She doesn't go to a great high school by any means, it's your typical rural county high school.

Plus, she is handicapped by having 50% of her DNA from me (I think) and getting half of her parental guidance from me as well (I am certain on that one).

So....I am pretty damn impressed by her.

My other two kids are gonna have to step their game up though lol.

Oh yeah, well I taught my cat to fetch, and catch frisbees. Top that.

Just kidding, congrats man, that's awesome.

You done good.

My daughter was joking around this morning and telling me and her mother that her success on the SAT had nothing to do with our parenting, but I reminded her that we at least get credit for her DNA lol.

For real. That's also a pretty sweet retirement plan,when you have a prodigy in the house.

Start scoping out the villas in Tuscany and the beach houses in Costa Rica. You can trade materials when she starts deciding on those elite schools.

LOL I've made it clear to my daughter that she is my retirement plan.

Peyton,
You have every reason to be a proud father! Awesome scores!

[I Am The Truth]

Congrats Peyton. Among other things college admissions related for high school students, I tutor the SAT, and that score will pretty much write her own ticket...especially if it accompanies strong extracurricular activities, a challenging courseload with AP courses, and strong grades.

I would make a Family Guy reference to their Wellesley College joke, but I will try hard not to here.

Anyway, congrats.

Congrate to your daughter Peyton! Those scores are fantastic! I'm sure she'll excell at any school she attends.

To carry on the "bragging parent" theme...
I have a son that was recently accepted to Georgia Tech.
