[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 576419, member: 1722"] Thank you, SFR, your words are very kind. I worry about her self-esteem too. While she's obviously a high achiever in some areas, she is a low achiever in others (social skills, syntax, etc). She's holding her own but it's still quite a difficult row to hoe. I just wanted her to feel love and guided and supported. And our firmness must be a part of the foundation we have laid with her: honesty, kindness, compassion, respect. The other stuff, truthfully, doesn't amount to a hill of beans if she isn't shown how to be a decent person. Not a perfect person, a decent one. I hope he understands this and makes changes accordingly. [/QUOTE]
