Not everyone can get an "A" or be #1 in every subject.

Well then, lets just dumb down the expectations of our kids shall we?

NO! How do you not get it? What I said is undeniably true. Not everyone can get straight "A's" or be #1.

You set the expectation that kids perform up to their potential.

I have a daughter with a brain injury. Is she of any less value than her “gifted” brother or sister?

Thank God, she has a lot of faith, and she knows her true value with God.

She is also sweeter and a harder worker than her brother and sister. She wants to be an accountant, and she will probably make a lot more money than her brother and sister because of hard work.
