[quote=Anonymous]Right now, all of her friends might seem "the best" at something, but there's always a bigger pond. The kids who are "the best" at sports, music, or academics will head off to college and no longer even make the team there. Or if they do, they won't be starters, soloists, etc. Unless you're truly elite in something, everyone eventually has to make that adjustment of accepting that they're good but not the best. If she's feeling insecure, one other way to look at things is that she's not the worst at anything in her friend group. The kid who is the best athlete might be the worst musician. One of the perks of being well rounded is that you're never among the worst at anything. [/quote]
