[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is pretty average academically. We are usually thrilled any marking period that contains nothing worse than one C, and she isn't especially talented or dedicated in any non-academic area. She is coordinated enough but not great at a sport. She is musical and has a nice singing voice, however quit her instrument in middle school and hasn't looked back. She doesn't have a "passion", unless you'd count Instagram or watching YouTube videos.

But she has a really wonderful personality. She is wise and sensitive about people, and she is a lot of fun to talk to. She is a good listener, and she is a good friend. She is loving and kind. She also has a great sense of humor, although only her close friends and family see it because she's a bit shy.

I sometimes do wonder what my daughter will be like when she is older. Will she get into a decent college? Will she even care if she doesn't? Somehow I think she will be fine, finding her own path (whatever this may be). As long as she's willing to work hard and live an honest life I will be happy for her. Then again, she may be a late bloomer who surprises us all. It will be fun seeing where she ends up.[/quote]

That's it! Enjoy the journey! And support her along her path.

LOL@ her "passion".

PS: I've been there. We've actually gone out to dinner to celebrate B's on DS's report card. :mrgreen: [/quote]
