[quote=Anonymous]Wow . Nature /Nuture 101. I am a normal guy. I work in education, went to an average college, played sports but wasn't a standout, and my wife was pretty much the same as I . AND or daughter is ridiculous. She is an excellent athlete who is going to play at a topnotch college. She has over a 4.0, and we have never ever had to ask about her grades or HW or anything. She just is who she is. I wish I thought I was some kind of super parent, but I just think that for whatever reason that is just who she is innately We have other kids who we love the same as her, but they are just different ( she is the oldest). One of our younger kids may not go to college at all which we are fine with because he/she has other interests that he/she can pursue . I never offer advice unless someone asks, but since you asked I would say just let them be themselves.[/quote]
