[quote=Anonymous]I wonder if all these people would have the same response if the kid was good at sports. Would you tell a kid who was proud to score 2 goals and carry the team to a win that other kids have different type of athleticism and he/she needs to cool it? I doubt it. Kids internalize that it's uncool to be smart/work hard/success academically and by the time middle school rolls around it becomes completely uncool and dorky to be a high achieving student. [/quote]
