[quote=Anonymous]PP of the teacher-made-my-plate story: I think it's really hard not to reinforce the cycle, because you are naturally proud when your kid is smart or talented or whatever. In my family, I was the smart sister (she was the outgoing/pretty one -- I know, cliche). I was never going to get attention for being outgoing or pretty, so I did everything I could to spotlight my intelligence. And if I made a mistake, it wasn't just a bummer, it was truly humiliating. No real advice unfortunately.[/quote]
