This is so true. However, I don't think it should start after you have children. When I decided to settle down and have children, I only dated very intelligent women based on their profession and if they were in MENSA. At the time when we decided to have children, we took our best eggs and sperm to produce the best genetically intelligent children we could. So, for these "vintage" parents who are just getting their kids into Stanford, I applaud them. But because it's getting more and more competitive, I pity parents who don't start their helicoptering before the child before it is in the womb!
