[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It might not be the parents. My kid is a perfectionist. I don't know where he got it. I often encourage him to skip things or do "just enough" but it's not his personality.[/quote] You could be right, but they should tell her that her grades are still great. [/quote] They might not know she's doing it. Some kids advocate for themselves. You reassure her and tell her no extra credit needed right now. I also have a kid who is wired this way and we do tell him his grades are great and if he tells of a bad grade we never make a big deal out of it.[/quote]
