[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was more bothered by the rejections than my kids ever were. My boys easily moved on.[/quote] Plus 1,000[/quote] Yep. My kids weren’t rejected by school they cared about. They shrugged and moved on. I was angry they didn’t see how amazing my kids are and how much they would contribute. Then I realized it wasn’t my college admission process, no one loves you like you mom and I was setting a terrible example for my kids on how to manage setbacks. So, I got a better attitude. Outwardly. Still a bit pissed deep down at the reject school because clearly my kid is awesome. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. It lasted 30 seconds and not a half hour.
