[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid knows people have all different strengths and weaknesses. I don't feel a need to hide from her where she has native talents. I also don't feel a need to hide from her where she has natural deficits. A kid who is an ace soccer player is going to know she's an ace soccer player. She should still demonstrate humility and be able to interact with mere human soccer players (and understand that native talents only get you so far, hard work is still a requirement). Academic strengths are no different.[/quote] I totally disagree. Soccer talent is overt, so it is easily seen by others. Intelligence is like wealth. It shouldn't be openly discussed with others unless you're crass.[/quote]
