[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess you need to ask her why does she feel “dumb”? Does she think the other students in her class are dumb and beneath her? I bet she doesn’t believe that. Can she work on giving herself the grace she would give others? [/quote] If she’s been told her entire academic career that only the advanced classes will get her into college and that the only way to have value at her school is to be high-achieving, then of course she feels dumb. Don’t gaslight the poor kid. This is a huge problem with the pressure we put on the kids. It’s completely insert that she feels this way. I seriously doubt she’s developmentally ready to reject all social pressures as PP is suggesting and decide that her own path is what’s right for her. I wasn’t ready for that until I was in my late 30s. (None of this is directed at you, OP. I’m speaking to the PP who made the ridiculous suggestion to you.)[/quote]
