My daughter came home from school a few months ago and announced rather sheepishly that she is a geek. I told her not to blame herself. With a father who collects comic books and plays D&D and a mother who thinks that reading about the Plantagenet dynasty is exciting, she had no choice in the matter.

I told my daughter essentially the same thing for similar reasons.

You should have told her to be *proud* of herself. Geekiness is not a cause for blame or shame.
