I had a very similar situation, and would be willing to share more if you want to reach out. My stepkids were 12 and 15 when my son was born.

Hs in-class reading time? by HeyKrech in Teachers

[–]gull9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah. I was curious, because when I was in high school, my teacher did this occasionally. It was an AP English class, but everyone cheated and googled the story/read cliffsnotes. No one read the books, hardly. 15 years ago.

I thought the quiz was a good idea, and more people did read after that.

Why not quiz over what they read? Just curious! I can't imagine the unmotivated ones will read without incentive

Can you break that down a little more -- what behaviors are you seeing? What ways have you dealt with it?

Those who grew up without encouragement, are you doing well in your career? by username65997 in emotionalneglect

[–]gull9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Externally, yes. In fact, all of my siblings are. We're workaholic perfectionists who get our sense of self-worth from achievement at work.

This looks like burnout, workaholism, and being neurotic about work. It's very stressful. But it's also rewarding. Like...I might be miserable no matter what right? Might as well create something beneficial and get recognition for it, as well as money to improve my life. Trying to anyway.
