Something to think about ... excellence is not a product of celebrating mediocrity. It's something I started meditating on because of unrelated events that involved people cheering on happenstance and consequences instead of truly memorializing greatness in their kids. You went to the potty all on your own? Hooray! You got a C+ in Math? Yay! Paid for an overpriced phone with a credit card? Great job! Got pregnant without any plan on how to actually raise a child? I'm so happy for you!
Critical much? Maybe, but I don't think it hurts to think things through before we clap for the sake of applauding each other.
