I for one am laughing my Ass off! I just sent this to my one and only child, he 20.
I always said to him when he was little and in High School..
“We do NOT believe in self esteem in this house…we believe in results.”

He still jokes about it it but he is a pretty good kid…had his moments though

From the terrific movie,”Whiplash”.

“There are no two words in the English language more harmful than ‘ good job’.”

So true. I saw two 3 year olds on a see-saw once and the mother kept saying,”Good job,kids”.

Good job? For playing on a see-saw?
