Skids and incompetence

checkedoutsm's picture

It seems like my skids fail at everything.

It's hard to complement them because they have no hobbies or talents, barely pass the easiest classes, and generally fail at everything they try. Remember how SS13 failed to make the basketball team? Well, SS is really tall, 6'3" in eighth grade. He should be able to play any position for his b-ball or football team because he is bigger than everyone else out there. It turns he is so incapable of ball-handling that he can't play on the b-ball team and he will be a lineman for football. Sports are his passion, I can't believe he is so bad they won't let him have the ball.

That's how sd13 is. Dh asked me why I don't say nice things about sd. Well I won't commend her on things she should be doing, like brushing her teeth, and she doesnt do anything else. This kid could be highly intelligent, but doesn't want to bring home books or homework, she's an ok singer, but doesn't want to practice the songs the sing in choir. Why should I praise her lack of effort. Why should I tell her she is the bestest (everyone else does that enough) when she isn't even trying, then gets irate when she doesn't make As, oor get the solo, etc. it's frustrating!
