[quote=Anonymous]I understand where your kid is at. I have three older siblings with than intensity, and I was more like your daughter. I feel like everyone finds their place and cohort in college. Right now, I would praise her effort and good grades. And be honest that these kids are working harder than she is. Talent only takes you so far. If she wants those awards, she has to do the work. It’s a lesson she has to learn at some point. [/quote]
