[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back in the 70's, I was the kid whose parents didn't help with projects and mine always sucked compared to the other kids and I was always embarrassed and really want my parents to help.  So it's not a new thing, or a helicopter parent thing, or a competitive thing.  Help your kid with the project.[/quote]

Sorry, my parents never helped me with a single project. They actually hardly paid attention to my school work.  I was never embarrassed about this. I just think you are not very resiliant and I'd bet you, like many adults, spend a great amount of energy comparing yourself to others. Probably an inate character trait of yours

Therenis a big difference from helpingbyout kid and doing for your kid. I help mynkid withbhos spelling drills. I help him with the order of operations and understanding exponents. Whrn doing a project i help him research by having fun learning together in depth about hoe precipitation is formed. But no, i will not bedazzle a pumpkin, nor will i make a diorama. [/quote]
