[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The first step is to recognize that you don’t actually value education and achievement above all… you value parental bragging rights. That is why you are so concerned about these things when your child is only seven years old. You aren’t bothered by the alleged mediocrity you see around you. [b]You are bothered because you are surrounded by people who are unimpressed[/b] that Larla takes violin AND piano and will therefore not give the “world’s bestest mother” validation you clearly crave. That said, the only solution is to move. The chill people in your town are unlikely to change and will continue to be deeply unimpressed by your striving.[/quote] This is it. Unfortunately, OP will be just as unfulfilled in a tiger parent environment where nothing is ever good enough to impress other parents because some other tiger parent is doing it better than you. Such an exhausting way of life.[/quote]
