[quote=Anonymous]My kids are young adults. What's funny is I remember one of them failing a reading SOL in grade school and not doing well on reading comprehension worksheets and tests. The teachers were telling me for a few years how kid isn't a good reader, was below reading level. Kid was later in honors college at university doing a ton of reading and getting As at a competitive university. Other kid bombed a few math SOLs in grade school. One teacher called me in for a one-on-one meeting and was very concerned that kid wasn't learning math and would never be good at it. Kid is now a STEM major and math is kid's best subject. Kid got As in AP stats, said it was pretty easy overall. Never listen to grade school teachers who tell you your kid isn't smart. Encourage your children's learning behind the scenes and be their biggest fan, because no one else in the world is.[/quote]
