Be grateful for ideas about the below - comments from teacher, DS gets upset when he makes mistakes. Think the teacher is saying that DS needs to be more resilient & looks to be praised to readily?? Any tips as to how I can help & if I've read between the lines correctly? Thoughts on a good response?
Seems rather odd to be described as 'obedient' etc but there you go...
'John is an obedient boy who loves to receive compliments.
Whenever he is being praised, his learning picks up quickly.
However, this is also one of his weaknesses as well. This is because not every one of us can always perform to the level whereby people will praise us for work well done. Hence, when he finds himself not able to perform up to the teacher's expectations, he will get irritated easily.'
