Plus, which is it - do you need Larla to be praised by the teacher so she will feel "good enough" and "preferred" by him/her, or are you teaching her not to care?  Just one more example of your muddled thinking.  [/quote]Don't you see? I'm teaching her that she's great the way she is while the school is teaching her that she's not fitting their cookie cutter.[/quote]

No I don't see.  I think you are dead wrong.  The world isn't fair, people don't always behave the way you want them to, schools, workplaces, etc have expectations for you, whether you think they are fair or not.  You are setting your daughter up to fail because YOU are failing to teach her how to get along in the world as it really is vs. the way YOU think it should be.  Keep it up and your child will be one of the 18 year olds in their first year of college who break at the first bad grade, criticism on a paper, failed romantic relationship, difficult social dynamic, etc.  You are not teaching her to be resilient because, well, you don't seem very resilient yourself.
