[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If your child resists, either they have a learning disability that makes it extremely hard for them to access instruction you are giving, or you are not a good parent and teacher (teaching is a skill that sometimes doesn't come easily!). [b]Also, OP, stop it with the "rich people are making this harder for us poor people". How ridiculous. It's your life, and your child's future.[/b] Own that, and actually put in the work. I am wealthy now, but when my oldest was in elementary, I was not, and taught him after school every day. He was not allowed to shirk. He has ADHD and autism, and really needed the supplementation, and so that's we did. I'll let you in on a little secret: it's a question of your motivation and willpower, not his. If you have more than he does, you will be able to develop his skills to his potential maximum, whatever that limit is. For example, you will go the extra mile and have the kid evaluated for ADHD or dyslexia or whatever. You will accommodate and support his learning, teach consistently, and never give up. It starts with you. [/quote] I didnt interpret that OP is trying blame rich people. OP says they were surprised by how much outside enrichment IS affordable when they discovered the low cost kumon option, and why it is not widely known among poor people. [/quote]
