I'll add this.
We have 2 very successful children, now in their mid-30's. A girl and a boy, both with very different personalities and goals.
Our girl, the oldest, was an athlete in middle school and high school and very driven to succeed. Part of being an athlete in school required good grades, so there was that motivation, too. She was a very high achiever. This continued through college.
Our boy was more of an average student, with a less enthusiastic approach to school. He matured very quickly in college, graduated and found excellent employment.
Both are married with children, and have excellent careers (as do their spouses). I am constantly amazed at their achievements and approach to life. I look back to me when I was their age, and realize that they are way ahead of where I was at that time.
