[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not going to say that a kid with a 4.0 is more deserving than a kid with a 3.7 but I am going to say that I'm sad that the teachers didn't seem to see my kid as being as amazing as I do.[/quote] This is a joke, right? Didn’t you read Yardsticks in elementary school and know that kids often act different for you than they do for teachers? I remember my kids’ K and 1 grade teachers drilling that in. So you’re amazing kid at home may not be so amazing in the classroom. Also, teachers can gauge on more than academic performance. One teacher commented about kids staying on top of their work, putting in effort, etc. If a parent’s sense of entitlement has been passed down, I would imagine that might impact how a child shows up in class (and a recommendation letter).
