I hope nobody read anything other that into my post.
I am awe of Daisy and I want our kids to be inspired by them -- not intimidated.

I know that it's a really hard lesson to explain. You're right, kids are competitive. It might take a while for them to catch on, but it will happen. Eventually they will "get it", and they will pursue Chairman's for the benefit of their community and themselves through the process. I don't think there's any one right way to pass this concept on. You know the students you're working with the best- try and find something that will strike a chord with them.
