[quote=Anonymous]Immigrant mom here. I am supposed to entrust my kid's education to the American school system? Do we get a do-over for our kids learning years? LOL. Nope. My kids always had a study/school time at home even as toddlers. That was a game we played. The very first day of kindergarten, they came back, had a snack and then had to do "homework" that I had assigned them for 10-15 minutes. This was the routine that I trained them to make a part of their nature. My kids were trained to put education first, to go above and beyond, to have pride and personal responsibility and to have the discipline to sit and do their work without distraction. DH and I have several higher ed degrees. we want to give every advantage to our children and a solid education is a foundation that will help them long after we are gone. [/quote]
