[quote=Anonymous]New Poster here. I was a little surprised to see such a long thread on something so true of me. I was raised poor by a crazy mom, have a brother in prison, another with anger issues, college drop outs both of them and yet I"m an over achiever who is now a millionaire! I am not a member of Mensa. I don't tend to join groups and hate paperwork. (I do think my brothers and I all have high IQs but only I have been tested 140 so not super-high). My worry, as a parent, is that my special snowflakes won't know troubles and so won't have one ounce of the resilience that I have and that might negatively impact their success. That said, I see all these HYP ARL parents who are good parents, good people, who made great kids and I think how did they do that? I"d love to know .I can't mirror my parenting and thus have no guide. [/quote]
