:frown: difficult child 1's team came in last. I feel so badly for him!!! Last year his school came in second place. difficult child 1 wasn't on the team last year and all of last year's members were seniors and not on this year's team.
On a positive note, difficult child 1 handled the loss well. However, on a not so positive note, he still thinks he is better than everyone else. He blamed his team's loss on the other members. He said he did his part perfectly :hammer:. Then he said that this year was only a practice anyway - next year his team will "whip their a**'s" (I had to remind difficult child that a**'s is not acceptable language!)
He has another programming competition in a few weeks. His instructor told the team that this one is alot easier and he thinks they'll do well. Time will tell...
Unfortunately, I don't think this experience is going to make a bit of difference as far as difficult child 1 getting better grades in school. As far as he is concerned, he is PERFECT in every way!!! All of us are beneath him. He truly believes he'll get whatever he wants in life because he is so much better than every other human being on this planet :hammer:!!! HELP!!! :hammer: :rofl:
As husband says, difficult child 1 is going to have learn the hard way... WFEN
