[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the premise that nothing is fun unless you are good at it. (mentioned in the link above) This is true of sports, video games, musical instruments, whatever. And I teach my kid that. Sometimes he might want to quit, and I find that some 'western' parents give in to that. But I have always found that as he improves at something (spelling, math, violin), he WANTS to do it more. Also, we do give lots of positive feedback (unlike how I grew up... my Asian parents never complimented us). I think the PP's link is pretty good.[/quote]
