[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're in MCPS but I handled it the same way -- by not talking it up. The issue is once they actually begin and are surrounded by all the other kids. Once in the HGC my DC picked up a lot of bragging about how great it was to be in there (but also how great an opportunity it was). Once the "i'm smarter" started in I said, "People who are smart know not to brag about it" and I stick with that.[/quote] Sorry, I didn't answer your question. When he first got accepted I said it was for kids who did well in and enjoyed school, just like kids who do well in baseball join a travel team, etc. and that everyone has their strengths and weaknesses and it's important to pursue your particular strength.[/quote]
