As graduation season approaches, a lot of college-bound seniors are happy to have the tense admissions process behind them. That process, says family psychologist Brad Sachs, is fraught with all sorts of problems created by the pressures placed on students to win acceptance to the country's most prestigious universities. Some high school students have been driven to suicide over pressures from final exams and college expectations. Sachs works with children and parents as they struggle through the college decision, right up until graduation and, in some cases, even beyond. He talks about the pressures kids feel to excel and to get to top-tier schools.Brad Sachs specializes in clinical work with children, adolescents, couples and families. He is the founder and director of The Father Center, a program designed to meet the needs of new fathers.
