Dad’s Controversial Comment: Gifted or Not?

During a family dinner, this proud mom and dad were discussing their children’s academic achievements, with their daughter about to start university at the early age of 15. Mom couldn’t help but gush over her ‘gifted’ daughter, but Dad chimed in with a different perspective. He acknowledged his daughter’s hard work and intelligence, but questioned whether she was truly ‘gifted’ or just the product of their support and her own dedication. This comment didn’t sit well with Mom, who accused him of putting their daughter down, while the daughter herself agreed with Dad but wished he hadn’t said it out loud. So, was Dad in the wrong for sharing his thoughts, or was he just trying to keep his daughter grounded? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
