[quote=Anonymous]OP - totally get it. I have the pit in my stomach when my kids do anything competitive. They sometimes (often?) loose and I hate that for them BUT I know it’s just life and sometimes when one path doesn’t work out that opens up a new opportunity. That doesn’t make it easier tho! I love my kiddos and wish they never have to suffer. Of course looking back on my own life, I had huge disappointments and so did my husband in HS and that is what pushed us to excel in college so maybe it helps. I definitely do not think my parents had any inkling of my abs setbacks and I do try my very best not to do more or less the same with my kids and try not to signal to my kids I hurt for them when work doesn’t work out - I try to give them room to be upset but don’t want to make a big deal of it.
