Valuable Lessons
When adults praise a child for trying, despite poor work, they teach that attempt is more important than results. I once took over a class in a middle of a term from a teacher who was a generous marker. After I had returned marked papers, one boy complained about receiving a «C». «I’m used to getting A’s» he said.
When I explained that his essay was badly written, he asked: «What about the pictures? Our other teacher gave extra scores for effort.»
Real life seldom praises those who try but don’t get results. And it’s a rare boss who tolerates an employee who insists that he’s doing his best. Unmerited praise
Years ago, my best friend was a naturally gifted musician. Her family saw every effort as «brilliant» but she hated practicing and often did badly at lessons. After one particularly unsuccessful performance, her mother said, «You were wonderful, but that piano needs tuning and the audience was so noisy, it’s no wonder you forgot the second movement». Had this girl received criticism, she might have realized her dreams of becoming a concert pianist.
As it was, her playing got worse, she lost interest and one day dropped out of music school.
