[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does it bother you if grandparents or other relatives don’t acknowledge your kids’ achievements or can’t even appreciate how big those awards are? They are from a LCM background and don’t value education or excelling in sports, music, whatever. My kids could win an Intel scholarship, make first chair, Eagle Scout, perfect SAT, state champion in sport, and it’s met with “I’m so proud of (another grandchild) who was just promoted to supervisor at retail job”. Or Larla who dropped out of college is doing so well because she just bought her own used car from waiting tables. They have a blank stare if told about some obscure to them award or achievement of my kids. I feel like my kids are missing out on a close relationship with them bc they can’t identify with them or spend time with them to get to know them well.[/quote] In reading between the lines, it appears that you want your child promoted over others. Not very humble OP.[/quote]
