[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry for the rant, but it really feels hard to find teachers, coaches, counselors, or consultants who are genuinely invested in helping my child grow. Am I asking for too much?[/quote] I don’t think you’re asking for too much. My high school kid has probably ten adults in her life, not related to us, who are genuinely invested her. Are they more invested in their own families? Of course. But they also genuinely care for her and want to help her grow. Spend less time with people who think life is a zero-sum game. Avoid any institution ranked “number 1” in a list on the internet — those places are magnets for zero-sum people. Look for schools, churches, etc., that attract idealists and people who want to make the world better. They’ll want to help your kid be better too. [/quote]
