[quote=Anonymous] Sigh. OP, calm down. The important thing is to tell the truth, so that she trusts you. You can pick examples from her life that reinforce the lessons you want to teach her. So if you think her intelligence is above average, please tell her. She deserves to know. And please insist that success depends on hard work. When she practices her instrument, or works hard at something, and then achieves something special, you can reinforce the concept by repeating that she got there through hard work. [/quote]
