[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an educator who is opposed to academic awards in the elementary grades. I am also opposed to everyone on a team getting a trophy for being on a team. We have coddled our kids way too much. [/quote] yes, you can not want to cushion your child from every disappointment AND believe academic awards are a bad idea. The poster(s) arguing that we all think we have fragile, precious snowflakes is creating a strawman.[/quote]
