I also think there is little good in K1 and K2 knowing so much about and focusing on K3’s stats. They should be primarily thinking of their younger sister in terms of who she is as a person and how much they love her and wish her well, and frankly her ACT score should have gone in one ear and out the other as far as they are concerned. I sense that each kid “wears” his/her stats around his neck, so to speak. The only reason my kids even were aware of one another’s stats was because they were twins and test scores came back at the same time – even so, we deliberately cultivated the “in one ear and out the other” approach when it came to anyone’s stats except their own.
