[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because competition is stiff.

FWIW - my kids don't have tutors. Never did, unless you count me as the parent.[/quote]

OP here. That’s reassuring. How annoying to “have” to get a tutor in order to keep up with work. Unless there’s a academic disability, of course. [/quote]
I find it's not to "keep up", but to surpass because competition is stiff, especially if you are Asian American, although, of course, there are those who need the tutoring because they need the help to keep up whether it's due to poor teaching or SN.

I'm the ^PP, and I'm Asian American.  My kids are fairly bright, one is in magnet, again never had a tutor. Sometimes I think I'm a slacker parent compared to some of these other parents who put their kids in all kinds of after school classes and activities, and my kids do just "fun stuff", except the one physical activity I make one DC do for health reasons, which DC absolutely loathes.  Maybe I need to up my game. I feel like such a slacker myself, and I feel my kids might end up that way, too.[/quote]
