    yep as well. The problem is, when family remember the earlier version, and start asking “why didn’t you do more/better?”

    And along with being told I was so smart, they said I had long fingers so I should be a great pianist. Nope.

    Telling kids they’re smart is just setting them up to be fragile little hothouse flowers that wilt at the first breeze of discontent. Once you’re out of school, effort matters more. Or having rich parents.

    Opposite happened for me. Since age of 4, jealous older sister tells everyone I am a criminal out for no good; only reason I had good grades was that I cheated. So all through school was treated as stupid and nefarious. By end of high school, was ranked in top 10. In college volunteered for psychology department testing. Found out I have IQ of 140. What a waste of a childhood. This was emotionally cathartic.
