Exactly. One of my sons was voted “Most Likely to be a Mad Scientist” once. He was insulted, but we told him it was the best, most humorous title to be given.

My teenage daughter came home in tears because she was voted "Most shy" by the students for the school yearbook. I told her she wasn't a chatterbox and didn't feel the need to push to be the center of attention, but apparently she was popular among the students and they wanted to give her a special place in the yearbook. I think that made her feel a little better, but she was voted "most shy" several years in a row and I don't think she was ever really happy about it.

But, as you said, "Least likely to have children"...? That is just not right, even more so coming from the teachers. I definitely would have had something to say to the teachers and school if they gave my child an award like that.

How old was your daughter? I think most seniors in high school can handle it, but a 10 year old is pretty sensitive.

I'd say you handled that perfectly! :-) When people say "shy", they usually mean "nice, quiet girl." It's definitely a "most" to be proud of.
