[quote=Anonymous]I'm a PP on this thread and will add that what you want your kids to believe is important is another critical piece of the puzzle. We work hard and want to accomplish something. Are we going to cure cancer or invent whatever comes after the electric car - of course not - but going to work every day, caring about working, believing it's important - doesn't that have some impact on your child's perception of the world? More than his/her benefit of micromanaged homework? This is what I think about, and I lean to the former. Otherwise we would step down, focus on comfort, and stop pushing so much. But that just feels like giving up on life. Don't we need people in the world who push for better things? And don't parental examples help build that motivation?[/quote]
