[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve encountered this recently with my academic overachiever kid. He’s starting high school in a very demanding competitive program and a few of the parents he knows from sports seemed shocked that he was admitted to that program, and kind of rude about it - like trying to rationalize it! Not a surprise to anyone he’s in class with, but doesn’t brag about it outside and the sports parents were entirely going on their assumptions not any experience talking to him. That said, if they’d taken any time to chat with him it’s pretty easy to pick on and always has been. It did make me shrug.[/quote] Agree. PP here. People can be quite rude if you are not pretentious poseurs. God forbid they give credit where credit is actually due! That is on them, not you. [/quote]
