[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why complains and not come up with a solution. My left handed kid is not good at cutting and doesn’t draw well at all even though he can print legibly.

When he has to do an art project in and English, science or history class he prints out a picture or illustration then taps it to a window where there is direct sunlight from the back. He holds up a blank piece of paper to outline the illustration.

Then I have bought him quality  alcohol based markers. I bought him Copic brand when they go in sale. He watched some YouTube videos his to use them. They really do make any type of drawing you color in look 10 times better than cheap markers.

Impressive. Kudos to you and your kid. Most kids and parents prefer to just complain [/quote]

It is really surprising how many parents expend a lot of effort for their kids not to do an assignment they don't like or don't do well. I thought I was being over the top buying my kid expensive markers, but it is interesting that so many parents figure out how to excuse their kids from work instead of figuring a way how their kid can do the assignment.

I think many parents would attend class with their child if they could - just to hover and make sure their kid does not feel the slightest bit of discomfort [/quote]
