[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think PPs are missing the point. Every minute these kids are doing Kumon or RSM or whatever is a minute they are not allowed to just *be*[/quote] Wrong. Putting your kids in RSM and Kumon is good for them. That (and a part time job at McDonalds) is how they build a work ethic, grit, and resilience. The indulgent American parents who let their kids stop striving and “enjoy tomatoes” will regret not pushing them. [/quote] Kumon is terrible. Temporary fake gains on arbitrary mechanical tasks. My friend "did calculus" in Kumon in elementary. [/quote]
