[quote=Anonymous]Parent of two boys here - if your second grader is obsessed with being one of the popular kids, he is absorbing that from you. I have one super sporty kid, one who is completely disinterested in sports, and neither is "popular" by their own admission. They have friends and generally get along with people very well, but somehow decided early on that they'd rather be themselves then try to impress a classmate. I'll admit there have been moments when I wished it were otherwise - they're great kids, they should be popular! - but for the most part I'm happy that they are not caught up in that BS. Bottom line: OP examine yourself if you're worried about this.[/quote]
