[quote=Anonymous]I usually said “oh wow” or “great.” I don’t take it personally, so for the most part I didn’t really care. My fave moment was when a friend said that her kid got a 98 on an exam. Her kid is very smart, and she was happy about it. My kid, however, got a 99 so I was over the moon. I didn’t say anything back but “wow,” and I still think about how delicious it is that nobody knows but us, which is most important. I just didn’t engage. When it comes to my friends’ kids, I’m genuinely happy about their wins. But, we talk about losses and the hard stuff too. [/quote]
