I find it so interesting as I too had a house full of highly talented athletes. They won age Champion trophies at school and interschool events along with State and National medals in their numerous sports. I discivered the tall poppy syndrome very early on and even had parents saying to me that it would be "nice" if my children gave someone else a chance to win (their child). As my kids grew older, my daughters particularly copped so much bullying because of their talent. Both ended up with Scholarships to the same private girl's school in Brisbane where they were loved, cheered on and thrived in an environment that encouraged excellence and welcomed champions. Good luck :)Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17541748309832254889noreply@blogger.com
