[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the poster you quoted. My kids would kill me too. ? I honestly have no idea about these centers, what they do, or where to find them. I was merely giving them the benefit of the doubt. For us playing in the sun and in the mud is a priority, but mind growing activities are extremely important too. [/quote] Asian-American parent here. In our family, we do prioritize academics. We just spent the past 6 days looking for shells, fishing and playing in the sun. I would not send my kids to some test prep center but there is plenty of time to have fun and study. We are not as sports obsessed but our kids do play baseball, soccer, tennis, golf and also on swim team. They are just average athletes but very strong in academics. I know I plan to take the kids to the library today and have my 2nd grader practice some multiplication. Sure, I may make him study for an hour today but he will have the other 12 hours to play.
