On the other hand I don't think I hothouse because  I teach my son a little each day.  I think "hothouse"  would be more like working him  just to show him off.  I have seen it used a little differently on this forum, used to mean "work with them on a useful  skill".   I am trying to stay one step ahead of him and  I'm giving him an education.
