[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 518978, member: 8045"] I understand how you feel!!!!Personaly I dont like people bragging about their kids, themselves or any family member! This happened to me the other day! This one "friend" of mine actually stopped me at school the other day to say we must go and have some tea! I thought....ok....this is weird, she wasnt paying attention to me the last few months???? Anyway...we didnt get time for tea, she bumped into me outside the shop...we talked and talked and then she asked so how did my son do on the asssessments? (she knows I have a very clever son....but it seems as if he struggles to perform under pressure...) I said Oh I dont attatch to much value to the outcome, because he had to do the assessments during the week that he had the MRI and Neuro assessment and was sick from vomiting at school, exct.( I didnt see the need to tell her any of his scores...) She then went on saying he had 80 persent for literature and 90 persent for literacy...and that they had a huge fight with him because he made silly pointless mistakes and could have done better!!!! OMW!!!! This child is trying his best, is ADD and on medications! He is such a misrable sad child because of all the fighting in their house and marital problems!!!! I just thought she should be so greatfull for her son! Well at least now I know why she wanted to have tea....to brag! This is sad!!!!!! I am proud of my son for giving his best and willingness to try! [/QUOTE]
