The self-esteem wave has passed. As my daughter (born 1987) says about it: "It was insulting. Did they think we were stupid? If everybody gets a trophy, it just means the trophies are meaningless."
(which is why her Mother and I were careful to praise her only when she had *actually* accomplished something...)
