GRADUATION

  • Tallulah graduated a couple of weeks ago
  • Graduated with ‘highest distinction’
    • UVA doesn’t have Cum Laude etc., they do levels of distinction for distinguished major programs instead
  • Majored in Political Philosophy, Policy and Law
  • Wrote a thesis; all of the kids in her major did and the topics were all super interesting
  • She wrote on VIS – picked a controversial side of the topic to write on
  • UVA has a lot of interesting traditions; call freshmen 1st years, sophomores 2nd years, campus is Grounds, etc.

SUCCEEDING IN SCHOOL

  • Tallulah went to high school with a lot of celebrity kids
    • Privilege oozing around her
    • She never had tutors or anything like that in high school
    • Did it all on her own
  • Didn’t have nightly load of work
    • Buckled down when she needed to and all of that
  • Vinnie and Serena didn’t need to hold her hand
  • Try to motivate your children without being too Type A
  • Some children need more hand-holding than others
  • We need to try and teach them independence, go for success
  • With hard work, our kids can succeed
  • We hurt our kids by forcing them into one field, one sport, etc.
    • Don’t force your kid to only play baseball
    • Encourage them to play multiple sports
      • This will help their athletic ability overall, too
  • Not keeping score is not good
    • Keeping score helps kids learn and grow
