[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child enjoys math and was bored with math in school. We want him to continue to enjoy math so we enrolled him in RSM. He is challenged at RSM and engaged. He is bored with math in school but he was already bored with math in school so that really isn’t a change. This way he is enjoying math through RSM and he is being challenged.

Do you wonder about the kids who are reading for fun at home or writing stories for fun at home or is that ok? Those kids are likely ahead of their classmates in reading and writing at school. Or the kids taking language school on the weekends? Your post seems to be focused on math but there are other areas that parents enrich.

And some parents are willing to pay for travel sports over rec sports, is that ok because it is a sport and not an academic subject?

Thanks, I get that and that makes sense, nurturing natural interest and talent.  I guess I am referring to those parents who push it on their kids.  What are they hoping to achieve? [/quote]
