[quote=Anonymous]Life is long Op. These kids who haven't "won" yet have a lifetime ahead of them. They are building skills, ways to cope, resilience that will matter for the bigger picture. I saw friends of my daughter propped-up by parents - kids who achieved, well, really didn't achieve as much as it looked like from the outside - because the parents were the puppet-master, and very good at getting their kids recognized for every little thing. Those kids had a much harder time with disappointment - and navigating reality - late high school/early adulthood.[/quote]
