I was never one to crowd into the Honor Roll line. I made a few A's and B's. I also had my share of C's and D's. I'm totally convinced that I must have been in a coma until I was 19 or 20. But I guess I was just thick. I wasn't on the Honor Roll but never "suffered" from low self-esteem because of it. If I did poorly in a class, I felt bad about myself. I deserved to because I performed poorly. Usually because I was lazy. I also felt good about myself if I did well. Guess what? That's life. I was friends with and happy for the smart kids who were nice, and hated the one's that were jerks. Same with the jocks. Same with the stoners. Same with the goat-roper's. Again, that's life. If kids can't learn to deal in school they'll never survive later. Not making the Honor Roll is nothing compared to some of the butt-kickings life will hand them in future. I'm just saying...
