Do you think your children are brighter than you are?

[cyrene]

I went to a pretty crappy university and came out with a 2.2 after working really hard throughout school and coming from a council estate.

My three kids have done very well in school (not boasting before the inevitable), one at Oxbridge, another doing dentistry, and the other a medic.

So yes, I think they are brighter than me. Will anyone else admit it ?

DS1 is definitely brighter than me. He's in yr 10 and currently predicted all 7s and 8s. I scraped a pass in Maths. I have gone on to do further education as an adult though.

DS2 struggles academically due to a medical condition that's left him with brain injury and subsequent learning difficulties . I think if it wasn't like this he'd be bright though. He is creative and loves to write stories
