[quote=Anonymous][quote]Wow, interesting thread here. OP, has your child expressed interest in doing KUMON? Did your DH, the math wiz, do KUMON as a child? He must have because KUMON creates math geniuses. Has your child expressed the desire to grow up to be a math wiz? I doubt it. Why not let your child have his/her childhood and stop living through them? I am beginning to feel that the mothers that push their children into child beauty pagents operate in the same philosophical realm as mothers who push educational training on their young children.

As for China being a force for Americans to fear, I believe that China will grow old long before it grows rich. At the end of the day the US creates the software and IP, they just pirate it. This is what skill and drill gets you.[/quote]

Unlike your child, at age 3 my child had not been exposed to much on this earth (much like the child's immature immune system).  He did not express an interest in trying Kumon.  In fact, he did not express an interest in going to the various museums around D.C.  We exposed the child to Kumon as well as the museums in D.C.

My child has also not expressed a specific interest in a "childhood" or an "adulthood" for that matter.

I am glad with your unbridled creativity and abstract thinking, as an American, you have finally discovered the fountain of youth.  Keep the software, intellectual property and minted new lawyers and investment bankers coming.  Hail America. :D [/quote]
