[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aaaanndd this thread reveals its true message...typical MOCO parents trying to game the system to get their kids ahead. See you in a few years when the kids are having mental health issues because they've been pushed too hard and equate your love to their GPA.[/quote] Or, the kids whose parents didn't enrich them and make sure their needs were met are the ones with mental health issues. Just because you do nothing academic at home, doesn't mean you need to find ways to justify it. Its easy to game the MAP test with workbooks and working ahead.[/quote] And the reason I would want to do this is...? Why would I want my kid to take calculus (for example) as a HS sophomore? What's the endgame? More prestigious college? More money at first job out of college? I want my kid to love what they are doing, earn enough to support themselves, and be happy. If extra work at home is part of what makes them happy, then hey, great. But otherwise, heck no.[/quote]
