well, we had this issue..... you know when they realize they are smart and then there heads stop fitting though the door...... wink

we have a saying in our house.... (we have a lot of sayings)

"Smarter isn't better it's just smarter"

My DH uncle is Mentally retarded... and so we use him as an example.... pointing out what a good person he is, all the good and thoughtful stuff he does for other people and how fun he is to be around.

It's what you do with what ya got that counts!
