[quote=Anonymous]DD gets down on herself when things don't come easy for her in school. When she was younger, we read a book about a historical character that overcame adversity and I think at the time it helped her try to be more independent and think she could do it instead of giving up without trying. I don't want to go to the same well again and now it's a little different. Seeing people in the high grouping and thinking if you aren't there from the beginning you just aren't any good at that subject. Or covering something that takes more effort and tuning out because you don't get it at first. DD loves history, enjoys reading and loves learning details of other people's life so I will get further with her making that connection and internalizing it than a lecture from mom. Until she sees the value, we can explain all we want but it won't make a difference. TIA[/quote]
