[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One would think that by the third child no one is overly impressed by little things… no it wasn’t the case with my kid but every time I thought he was unusually good at something it turned out to be pretty insignificant in the overall scheme of things. By now I think what matters is high self esteem, ambition, and ability to work hard. [/quote] It’s funny because we were “flash card parents” with our oldest and he learned to read at 6 with everyone else despite us doing worksheets with him at 3, 4 & 5. He ended up resenting it all and we had pushback but thankfully he’s a good student now at 13 and so is our 11 year old. Our youngest is an “oops” and I hate to admit it but for the most part she’s just along for the ride. Super easy going and we are so much more relaxed. I find ir so ironic she’s the one who is picking up things I worked so hard in with my older two. Maybe the daycare teacher is just better at it? [/quote]
