May I join the club of 'isolated parents'?
A few days ago I shared a little bit more about DD's problems at the school with a friend and she was ... furious!!! How did I dare to suggest that she needs a modification of the curriculum? Shame on me....
My parents, well my mohter, is a sympathetic listener, but I do not think she does have a real understanding of the GT issues. I can talk to her, but she does not give me any real feedback or advice. Well, at least she listens.
But in general, I feel more and more isolated. On top of that I am quite extroverted, wich means I NEED to talk. And the results is that I am having nightmares with DD's curriculum and going over and over it the whole night. DH of course is on my side but he is an introvert and does not like to discuss endessly the subjects that worried him, so I talk a lot to myself.
About competitive parenting, I agree with Kriston how to deal with it. I think it is great.
