[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the point of knowing multiplication and division. They don't get to that till 3rd grade. By that point your child would have forgotten or been bored for 3 years. Learning to be self sufficient, empathetic, develop good social skills, take risks is far more valuable. Any monkey can be sent to kumon for a summer and come out with advanced math skills. The other stuff if harder. Or let then learn an instrument or sport which helps teach all of the above. Bragging about math and reading skills after putting your child in an environment whose sole purpose is to work on those skills is just silly [/quote] Love the Kumon comment! I had a similar comment on another thread and got completely slammed. [/quote]
