[quote=Anonymous]I am often struck by the contrast of what I read on this forum and what I observe in real life in terms of the ultra competive, AAP obsessed, Tiger mom types out there. I really just don't see it around me - and I confess, I am somewhat of an AAP obsessed parent myself and I feel alone in this, like I have to play it cool and pretend I don't care around other parents because they behave as if it is totally not on their radar. Even the parents with AAP kids say stuff like, "Oh, THAT is what that test was for, I had no idea..." Is everyone BSing? or is my child just at a laid back, non-competitive school? Does everyone act non-chalant IRL and then come here to this forum to let out their crazy, competitive side? Am I alone in this observation? [/quote]
