[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still don't know what OP or her kid are upset about![/quote] that she is not considered the very top student at her school. yes, it sounds crazy, but it still requires managing. [/quote] Wow you need to reset her expectations. There will always be someone better. Nobody is perfect. [/quote] I don't think it was the OP who provided the above explanation ("that she is not considered the very top student"). I think that was just someone's take. Because the actual OP has said in a previous posts that her DD is NOT actually upset about not being at the tippy top. She just sort of wants more recognition for her particular strengths, or something. Or she is disgruntled that the same kids win multiple awards? . . . Again, I'm confused![/quote]
