Gracie: I got a B on my math test. Dad: Gracie, don't be upset. A B is great. Dad: Look at it this way... When it comes to not getting them all right... Dad: You got an A plus!
Glad my parents didn’t say stuff like this. Does she need to not overstress about a B? Yes. Should she be told to think it’s great that she got stuff wrong? No.
Rotten little overachiever is all she is. Had a classmate like that in high school. He went into fits of depression if he didn’t always have the best grades in everything. His mother actually supported his manic behavior and gave his TEACHERS hell if he did not do well on his tests!
