[quote=Anonymous][quote]Hahaha! I actually am not a parent whose kid preps.

I have one of those eat a good breakfast (the kid never gets a good nights sleep so we don't even try) 99% type of kids, who generally hits the ceiling on every test he takes, from the SOLs on up to everything else.
 
Testing is easy for my kid. Easy, easy, easy. As a result, work ethic is lacking.
 
I would rather have a class full of hard working, prep for everything, studying all the time classmates and their Tiger moms raising the bar and helping my kid to understand that in the long run, it is about the work ethic, not just acing tests over material he either never saw, or only glanced through once.
 
Those hard working classmates are reaching him in a way that my lectures never had.
 
And so we are very happy to have them in my kids class.[/quote]

We are happy too.  In my day some kids like this can't respond when the rubber hits the road at higher levels and hard work is demanded in their academic work.  They have been deconditioned for years too not working hard and like their skeletal muscle -- the gear is not there because of flab and atrophy.  [/quote]
