[quote=Anonymous][quote]That's all. The goal is to get the kid to learn. Focusing on "you MUST work with dad on your math" completely is picking the wrong battle. The battle is math. I understand that completely, and as I said previously, I help him when I am able. But helping him with math is not my only obligation in life, and if I am not available, and he needs help, he has to go to his dad. That's all there is to it. The battle is the math, and the math has to get done. Well then reflect hard on why the two of you alternately bring out the worst in your kid and stop doing that behavior. The goal here is math. Not everything has to be a parenting lesson. If you still can't manage it, contract out with a tutor. [/quote] Sorry to hear you feel that way, but the "parenting lesson" is that my life does not revolve around giving DS everything he wants 100 percent of the time, which I think is a good one.
