Some kids at school work hard to get A’s, but the teacher thinks that’s not fair to the kids who don’t even try and get F’s. She takes away points from the A students and gives them to the ones who don’t work so everyone gets C’s.

The F students don’t work harder because, they got C’s.
The A students stop working hard because their hard work got no recognition or reward. Everyone in that group of students loses out.

Yes. That’s always a good one, especially if your kid is an overachieving straight-A student.

That is how I explained it to my kids.

High A’s GT kids and very driven. I explained to them that their achievements would be rewarded to lazy ass kids. They were pissed.
