Quiz: Are You A Push-For-Gold Parent?
A ‘yes’ to more than three of these signs means you have to lighten up a bit!
– I feel extremely disappointed and worried when other children reach milestones earlier than my child does.
– During family gatherings, I urge my child to perform tricks for everyone
whether he or she likes it or not.
– My child has the best voice in class, so he or she deserves to have the
center spot in the special number.
– It doesn’t bother me when other parents tell me about their kids. My child’s
accomplishments always outdo theirs.
– I always ask my child’s scores in quizzes and exams, then asks what his
or her classmates’ scores were.
– I always air out my complaints to my kid’s teacher whenever I feel that my
child didn’t get the grade I think he deserves. I demand explanations and
don’t give up until I am satisfied with the answers.
