本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛My girl used to be very good in academic and helping teachers in school. But in 1 term, she suddenly changed. Her results dropped and she didn't coorporate with her teachers. Her teacher worried what happened and discussed with us about the situation. It took us a long time to find out that her best friends make fun of her that she was a geek and teachers' baby. She didn't want to lost their friendship; so she acted like them. Don't do homework, pretended not knowing the test or questions from teachers.
It took us a while to explain to her that it was OK if someone make fun of her if she was too good. I asked her 10 years from now if she wants to apply to university with average grade 90+ and 20 good reference from her teachers or average grade 70 and 20 good reference from her best friends.
Now she has another set of "best friends" who all study hard and help teachers after school. And all of them do care what other people call them. They stay focus and know what they are doing.
So do you want your kids to be 头号笑柄 in school? My girl does not mind any more! How about yours?
Actually, the same concept applies in your career as well.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
