My son got a first at RG Uni and has won a prize for his dissertation and top marks for his course!! As you can imagine I am absolutely bursting with pride but my cohort have had massive problems with their children generally! I just cannot share this news for a few weeks. It would be lovely to share this positive news 😘

Congratulations, and very impressive, I must admit, I should of studied better at university.

be proud of his achievements, and I understand your perspectives about the pride and wanting to say here is a good example to inspire others. But human psychological perspectives, can be a whole other tea cup.
