[quote=Anonymous]We have always let our kids choose their arts and language courses. For math and science, we've told them that they must take the courses that the school recommends. (We are in a private where the school recommends, but does not require, a particular math/science track. This has really only been an issue once. DS was recommended for an accelerated chemistry course and he was nervous about it. We insisted that he follow the school's recommendation but said that we did not care about the grade as long as he was trying. I'm surprised at the number of parents who will let girls, in particular, back out of the harder math/science courses because they are afraid of a "B." [/quote]
