Parents of ultra-successful kids do these things
EDITOR'S NOTE: Kara Alaimo is an associate professor of communication at Fairleigh Dickinson University. Her book 'Over the Influence: Social Media Is Toxic for Women and Girls — And How We Can Take It Back' was published in 2024 by Alcove Press. Follow her on Instagram, Facebook and Bluesky. When Jerry Groff's 14-year-old daughter Sarah told him she wanted to swim across a 9-mile lake one Sunday morning, he could have responded in several ways: This idea is crazy — and even dangerous. You should practice swimming more first. We already have other plans. Instead, Jerry and his son boated next to Sarah as she swam. And Jerry's wife, brother and sister-in-law drove along the lake in case Sarah needed a ride home, Susan Dominus wrote in her just-released book, 'The Family Dynamic: A Journey Into the Mystery of Sibling Success.' Sarah ended up swimming the whole lake and setting a town record that day. Today, Sarah True is a two-time Olympian and professional athlete. Her brother, Adam Groff, is a successful entrepreneur. And her sister, Lauren Groff, is an acclaimed novelist. Having parents who fostered their independence was a common theme among people who have grown up to make outsize achievements, according to Dominus, a New York Times Magazine staff writer who interviewed six families for the book. These parents 'were not afraid to let their kids fail at something that seemed really hard,' she said. 'They let their kids make their choices, even if they knew those choices would be difficult.' It's just one of the lessons parents and guardians can take from her research into raising successful kids. While the parents Dominus profiled generally supported their kids' dreams, they didn't micromanage their children's progress. 'In not one of these families were the parents overly involved in their kids' educational lives,' she said. 'They were paying attention, they were supportive, they were there.' But when they showed up for their kids' games, they didn't try to tell the coaches how to do their jobs. Instead, Dominus said, parents focused largely on providing warm, supportive homes and let people like teachers, coaches and other mentors handle the instruction and discipline of their children. In part, adults didn't 'overparent' because they themselves were busy serving as powerful examples, working hard and contributing to their communities. Generally, whether they worked outside or inside the home, they 'were in roles that they felt were meaningful,' Dominus said. While she was raising her children in Florida in the 1950s, another parent, Millicent Holifield, persuaded the state to create a nursing school for Black women. One of her children, Marilyn Holifield, chose to be one of the first students to desegregate her high school in the early '60s and went on to become a local civic leader and the first Black woman partner at a major law firm in Florida. As a Harvard Law School student, Millicent's son Bishop fought for changes to promote racial equity at the school and later convinced the state of Florida to reopen the Florida A&M University law school so more Black lawyers could be trained. Another son, Ed, became a cardiologist and public health advocate. These driven parents imparted the belief that their kids could conquer the world, too. 'There was a tremendous optimism among so many of these families,' Dominus said. 'It's one thing just to say that. But your kids know if you feel it or if you don't, and their own lives had given them reason for optimism.' That's because many of those parents had overcome difficult things 'or surprised themselves or surprised even societal expectations.' Another common theme was valuing education and being curious and open to new experiences, like travel, art and music. To have those experiences, the parents of ultra-successful siblings needed to find the right places and people. They tended to have supportive villages — literally and figuratively. 'They didn't just live in neighborhoods that offered a lot of enrichment,' Dominus said. 'They took great advantage of it.' The Holifields lived near a university in Tallahassee and made the most of it by taking their kids to local cultural events and enrolling them in art lessons, a children's theater and a journalism workshop. Other parents worked to connect their kids to successful people who could teach them skills. Ying Chen immigrated to the United States from China, worked seven days a week in her family's restaurant and wasn't fluent in English, but she cultivated relationships with accomplished local musicians she met so her children could learn to play instruments. Her son Yi became the fifth employee at Toast, a restaurant management business that went public with the biggest IPO in Boston's history. Chen's son Gang joined another notable startup, Speak, which uses AI to help people learn languages. Her daughter, Elizabeth, became a physician. And her son Devon went on to work for Amazon. Of course, we don't all need to raise CEOs or Olympic athletes. People who pour so much energy into one pursuit often have less time to invest in other aspects of their lives, Dominus found in her research for the book. 'To achieve really great things requires sacrifice — and that can be in love. It can be in quality of relationships. It can be in peace of mind, it can be in downtime, it can be in reflection,' she said. If kids set hugely ambitious goals for themselves, it's a good idea to 'remind them that there are costs associated with it.' Parents or guardians often worry about whether they're making the right decisions about things like whether to co-sleep or punish kids, but Dominus said 'these variations, it turns out, have less effect on things like personality and other kinds of outcomes than we really imagined that they do.' Instead, focus on having strong relationships with your children and, most important, Dominus said, 'don't demotivate your kid by being overly involved.' The parents Dominus profiled were the kind who didn't tell their kids they had to swim a lake but let them give it a shot when they wanted to — and were there to love and support them regardless of whether they failed or set a record.

Blue Sky Scrubs Launches Highland Stretch Men's Scrub Vest – Designed for Movement, Built for Performance
United States, May 30, 2025 -- Blue Sky Scrubs, a leader in premium medical apparel known for combining form, function, and fashion, is proud to announce the launch of its latest innovation: the Highland Stretch Men's Scrub Vest. Designed to offer unmatched flexibility, style, and comfort, this new addition to the Blue Sky line was created with one goal in mind: to help healthcare professionals move freely, confidently, and comfortably throughout their longest shifts. Crafted from a specially engineered four-way stretch fabric, the Highland Vest is ideal for high-mobility environments such as operating rooms, emergency departments, and clinics. Whether you're navigating a busy hospital corridor or performing a delicate procedure, this vest keeps up with every move—while providing the sleek, professional look Blue Sky Scrubs is known for. 'Our healthcare workers are on their feet all day, constantly moving, lifting, adjusting, and responding,' said David Marquardt, co-founder of Blue Sky Scrubs. 'They need apparel that doesn't hold them back. The Highland Vest was built to flex, breathe, and work as hard as they do—all while looking sharp.' A Modern Take on a Wardrobe Essential Unlike traditional scrub jackets or rigid vests, the Highland Stretch Vest is a contemporary layer that blends high performance with everyday wearability. It's lightweight enough to wear under surgical gowns or over scrubs without adding bulk, yet warm enough to provide essential comfort in chilly hospitals or during long overnight shifts. The design includes: Engineered for Movement One of the most defining features of the Highland Vest is its high-stretch, breathable material. The vest is made from a proprietary blend of spandex, polyester, and performance cotton—providing just the right balance between structure and softness. It moves with you, not against you, making it the perfect mid-layer for medical professionals who are always in motion. Whether you're lifting patients, leaning over exam tables, or sprinting between cases, the Highland Vest doesn't bunch, ride up, or weigh you down. It simply works—so you can focus on what matters most: your patients. 'I've never worn something that fits this well in the OR,' said Dr. Marcus Varela, a trauma surgeon who tested the vest during development. 'It's lightweight, stretches like a second skin, and doesn't get in the way. Plus, I don't have to change when I go to lunch—it looks that good.' Tailored for the Modern Professional In true Blue Sky fashion, the Highland Vest isn't just practical—it's stylish, too. With a clean, tailored design, subtle logo detailing, and neutral color options like Graphite, Navy, and Steel, the vest is easy to pair with your favorite Blue Sky scrub tops and pants. The vest is available in a full range of sizes (XS–XXL) and is cut to flatter without restricting. Whether you're tall, broad-shouldered, or lean, there's a fit designed to work for you. 'This vest is for the healthcare worker who values comfort but still wants to look put together,' said Kelsey Nguyen, Head of Product Design at Blue Sky Scrubs. 'It's professional enough for patient rounds, modern enough for team meetings, and comfortable enough to wear home.' Designed with Feedback from the Frontlines As with all Blue Sky products, the Highland Stretch Men's Scrub Vest was developed in collaboration with healthcare professionals across multiple specialties. Over the past year, Blue Sky's design team worked closely with doctors, nurses, physician assistants, and surgical techs to gather insights on what they need most from a performance vest. Top priorities from test users included: Each feature of the Highland Vest reflects that real-world input, ensuring it serves as more than just a stylish extra—it's a critical part of the modern medical wardrobe. Available Now – Online and in Select Stores The Highland Stretch Men's Scrub Vest is now available exclusively at with prices starting at $84 USD. Customers can enjoy free shipping on all U.S. orders over $100 and access to Blue Sky's 30-day fit guarantee. For healthcare institutions or group orders, Blue Sky Scrubs offers bulk pricing and custom embroidery options for facility logos, names, and departments. Blue Sky's Ongoing Commitment to Healthcare Professionals The launch of the Highland Stretch Vest is part of Blue Sky Scrubs' larger commitment to developing purpose-built, high-quality medical apparel that reflects the needs and values of today's clinicians. With an extensive lineup of scrubs, undershirts, jackets, and accessories, Blue Sky continues to elevate the medical uniform into something that offers comfort, confidence, and pride. Because healthcare professionals deserve the best—on every shift, in every role, and at every level. 'This vest represents everything we believe in—comfort, innovation, and respect for the people who care for others,' said Marquardt. 'It's our way of saying thank you to the men who show up, day after day, to keep our communities healthy.'
