[quote=Anonymous]This is so weird, why do you care? My kid is in public school and has worked very hard to get all As in all her classes for all of 6th, 7th and first quarter of 8th grade. She had brain cancer when she was little and the two brain surgeries and 16 months of chemo means she has inattentive ADHD and a processing speed of about 10th percentile. School is so much harder for her to get through than most kids that do as well as she does.

We have treated her to dinner and my husband got her two different lululemon necklaces over the course of these two years as a reward for working so hard. We are immensely proud of her and her love language is gifts and quality time so all of this means a lot to her. For our income bracket, she has a lot less clothing and jewelry than her peers so she isn’t overall “spoiled” in this sense. I probably wouldn’t have gotten the necklaces, but it was my husband’s decision and I don’t disagree with him on this — even if I might now have done it.

If the real problem is that this person is a braggart, then that is the problem. [/quote]
