[quote=Anonymous]All depends on circumstances. Some kids are just talented and I actually enjoy hearing about kids’ accomplishments, just as I don’t mind hearing about friends’ promotions or good things in their lives. I don’t really know anyone who puts others down in the process. This may be more your insecurity. Then again, we live in an affluent area where everyone seems smart and talented at something. A few kids really stand out but most kids are doing what they enjoy. I guess my kids are good at what they do so I don’t feel bad if other kids also do well in what they so. My boys are very athletic but hated instruments. If some other kid is a talented musician and mention their solo, I don’t think anything of it. I may say my kids hate practicing their instrument. I don’t go around saying how good my kids are at sports. Kids at school know. Their teammmates know. Others don’t and I don’t feel the need to tell them.[/quote]
