[quote=Anonymous]I agree that it’s a crap shoot. My older DD is “academically inclined” - but she’s been bright & intellectually curious from her toddler years. My other DD was just regular and has sometimes struggled with school work. To help her, I read to her before bed (even though she’s a rising 6th grader). I have her read challenging material aloud. I work on spelling & vocabulary with her, and she sees a math tutor. There is a window of time, and once they get to middle school school it just gets harder & harder to keep up if you’re behind. I agree that grades aren’t everything, and many successful people struggled. [/quote]
