[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Elementary school parenting is a blip on the radar of your life.  You all will learn soon enough that what you are doing here is sweating the small stuff.  None of it means anything.  [/quote] High school parents here, I strongly disagree. These are fundamental skills, and you were building a love of learning or associating school with boredom. [/quote]
Funny. Truly gifted kids will love learning what they’re passionate about. Most learn in spite of teachers. Parents just want to brag about their kids being gifted. [/quote]

I guess that’s what you tell yourself for letting your kid have sub par elementary education.

No idea why you want to put obstacles in your child’s path in life; if the school basically makes them sit idle for 6 hrs a day, that is squandering so much potential learning time.  That’s what our elem does; our kid is advanced (no coaching or home teaching here) so spends a lot of time on their own while teacher spends most of the day with the kids who struggle.  Maybe we get a little extra time on the computer, yay![/quote]
