[quote=Anonymous]Our youngest is graduating high school. Just enjoy your child, it goes fast. Once kids hit upper elementary time goes on warp speed. Encourage your kids to do their best, but don't get swept up in the academic arms race. Don't hang out with those parent, cut them loose. The older your student gets, the more you fade into the background as a supporting player at home. By sophomore year of high school, the only time you ever talk to your kid's teachers are at open house (if you even go) or at any end of year event (if any). You let your kid do all the talking with teachers so they will be comfortable talking to college professors. If you don't fade into the background then they won't learn to speak for themselves.[/quote]
