[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ha! For one of my kids, if I push her to do something, she typically will do the opposite. All her motivation to do something exits her body. What she needs to hear is "you have come so far, you are just fine no matter what you achieve, I am so proud of you." This is in part because she is absolutely brilliant and so talented, and when somebody sees this, they say things like "you have so much potential, you can go so far, if you work hard someday you will become something great." That is a lot of pressure and can get overwhelming for her. From me, her mom, she needs something different. [/quote] What about your other kid? [/quote]
