[quote=Anonymous]OP, your child -- and one of mine, and zillions of others -- are what we lovingly refer to as a "late bloomers." Nothing in the world wrong with that, although I know it's impossible for him to see that from his 11 YO point of view. But you and DW need to keep that in mind, and keep the focus on the big picture. You know as well as I do that many of his peers that seem to be excelling now -- not to mention the ones who will be the stars in high school - will flame out fast when the real world hits, and when life starts to matter. He will find his spot. Meanwhile, there is a lot to be said for a kid who is kind, funny, nice to the new kids, loves his pets, is polite to adults, interested in the world around him and is just generally a good person.[/quote]
