My daughter is a little wallflower, conforms to all the rules, is doing well and achieving well, has friends and everyone likes her.
Unfortunately for me as her Mother it's not enough ...a long time ago I was a teacher and experienced these wallflower children. What bothers me most is she never gets chosen for awards, is the last to get a merit (and then the reasons are vague)...pushes herself forward for nothing...
It's never noticed that she is always good, always hardworking, always kind, always helping others, always following the rules and always having to watch the boys who have in the past hurt her and called her names get a big pat on the back.
Anyone else as crazy as me about this?
