just think about it and comment

Why do you assume that WE are pushing THEM? The pushing is getting the school to let the kid learn something besides how to coast. The pushing is the kid coming home crying from boredom because everything in class is stuff he learned when he was three, wanting something new to learn. I haven't seen anyone in these forums who is doing anything but being pulled by their children.

Leave the mindless tedium jobs for the kids who don't want to learn and do new things. Our kids will never settle for that.
