emailing kids grades to friends ect..

[jeanie]

my sister emailed her daughters grades to family and friends..she got a's and one b. DH says this is not a good idea to bragg like that..i dont think I would email my kids grades to anyone..its one thing to be proud but this is a little too much what do you think..my sister in law doesnt email she verbally tells people her kids grades..Im not sure how I feel about this either.

Why WOULDN'T you tell friends and/or family your kids' grades?

It's an exciting and proud moment when your kid has an achievement and I'd be honored if someone shared that with me.

Of course there is a time and place and a not so good time and place. The middle of a conversation where your best friend has just said she's been very concerned about her child's academic progress of late is NOT the time to start spouting off about your straight A student who would never settle for an A-.

Sounds like she's just wanting to let the world know how proud of her kids she is. :shrug: Brag away!

I do it all the time. The first thing my kids do after we read their report cards together is to call the grandparents and tell them how they did that term. It is good to be proud of your accomplishments.

yes Im ok with bragging to grandma this is great..I will do this too!! I should have told you these gals (ones my sister the other sister in law) are bragging about their kids and about everything and compare this and that..it gets really old. And if I say 'MY GIRLS ARE DOING THIS OR THAT...they could give a hoot and go right back into talking about their kids.

I do not mention grades but I do say "We are so proud of Luke. He loves school and the teachers loves him." or "Hunter worked so hard this semester. We are so proud and he got lots of compliments from his teacher."

I don't plan to make a fuss about the letter grade but more about what that grade reflects.

i like the way you put that.
