[quote=Anonymous]I didn't have parents, so no, they didn't push grades. I helped my kids all through elementary school. In the beginning of middle school I prompted them to help themselves, and in 8th grade I backed off even more. At the start of 9th grade, I just ask "How's science going?" or "Hey finals are coming up, what do you need in order to study for them?" Sometimes they wanted me to quiz them and sometimes they just wanted me to keep the snacks flowing. One kid went to Berkeley, one to Stanford. The two youngest are in middle school. [/quote]
