With you all the way -

My husband is and Electrical Engineer with a minor in math, and he told me to chill when I started putting pressure to bear for my son to speed up and to memorize his times tables. He said that he himself still doesn't know them all by memory and that many of the top mathematicians don't either, because they approach math differently.

Since then I've backed off. He's started liking math again, thinks he's good at it, and is actually making more progress than when I was stressing him out.
