Yeah, I guess if we keep heaping praise on one young man for being exceptional,......it would make the other kids feel like they're not as exceptional? Right? Is that why we lie by giving all the kids a trophy? Guess what all you other kids? You aren't as good as this kid. He's demonstrated an exceptional attitude. Trophies are for winners kids. Sorry we ruined that concept for you over the past oh, 3 or 4 decades but the truth is in the definition of the word. tro·phy noun 'tro-fe : an object (such as a large cup or sculpture) that is given as a prize for WINNING a competition. Not just for showing up. Not even for doing you best and giving it everything you had. But this kid,..... he's gonna be better at almost anything, than almost anybody.
