[quote=Anonymous][quote]The OP never said her son was particularly gifted in math -- only that her husband (and she?) were gifted, and they would like to see that in their own son. Pushing their kid to learn basic facts sooner -- rather than do activities that develop a greater appreciation for the subject -- seems like a terrible idea, whether it's math or reading or soccer or violin. And it certainly doesn't seem like it's following the kid's lead.[/quote] There are some parents incapable of leading (or capable) and elect to be led by their 4-year-old child. That's your prerogative. Unfortunately, my 4 year olds are not as bright, intelligent and all knowing as yours. They have required tremendous support and help all the way from scheduling their activities, school choices down to grooming and hygeine. Our young children follow our leads. We have not giving them their licenses to drive and vote quite yet.[/quote]
