My dd is 9...in a gifted 4th grade class which only teaches 1school year ahead and is officially failing math because he doesn't show his work. If I fight for him and try to explain he's bored with common core math and reading about the Rats of NiMH I become the annoying parent who thinks her child can do no wrong thus resulting in him never amounting to anything. But if I don't fight for him then instead i teach him its best to conform with society and please them while numbing your mind. Either way i feel like a failure and cant seem to help hom...or stop the anxiety. Anyone ever had this issue?
