don't speak ill of other people's children. absolutely no good can come of it.  You wrote:
"The chosen girl is very competitive, pushy, tries very hard to be perfect, to win and to receive praise."  Not nice at all.[/quote]

Why is it not nice?  That's her personality.  She's competitive and ambitious, that's good for leadership skills and achievements.  But she's also a little pushy and dependent on approval from others, and that's not good.  My daughter has good and bad traits too.  She doesn't give a f**k about what other people think of her, but she also doesn't like to follow instructions and imitate others, so it's harder for her to learn.  She also doesn't challenge herself, she needs a little encouragement.  All the kids are different and not perfect.[/quote]

Really?  This is someone else's child.  With the other girl, you could say "assertive" but you say pushy.  For your daughter, you say "doesn't follow directions and imitate others" when you could say "recalcitrant and dismissive."
