[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I only push my kids on life basics—so they need to learn how to write, do a lot of math, clean, be polite. I cannot push for what I see as extra items, like pursuing dance, theater, computer programming, a field of study. That’s all their choice and effort. [/quote] +1...there is a difference between pushing, nudging and encouraging. OP, think your use of the word "pushing" sent this thread sideways from the start. You should have known that word would have led to a plethora of negative comments. It takes a lot for a parent to know when each is appropriate.[/quote]
