[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really hate people who identify as "Type A." I feel no sympathy for you, OP. I do have sympathy for your kids. (And I went to a top-10 college.)[/quote] I feel the same way. I think it's that Type A people will say they can't help it, it's just the way they are, it's hard for them, etc.--but really, they think they are superior, that their way is actually better. And so you have someone like OP, who appears to have perfectly normal children, seeing them as below average and trying to figure out how to reconcile herself to her substandard offspring. It's sad to have such a narrow view of what counts as successful.[/quote]
