Everyone is entitled to not learn from others or himself or hers

Having a perfect score, or perfect scores, perfect transcript or perfect activities does not make a perfect applicant, and most importantly, not a perfect child.  Parents must look beyond the scores of their children  and scores of their children's classmates.  I know it is impossible to do.

Kids may hide themselves behind a perfect facade. We as parents, must see through the facade, and ask and sense what our kids are struggling with.  I know it maybe difficult to accept the fact that is contrary to your belief.
