Are you extreme?
I like what this Psychology professor says in the following article. "You know you're an extreme parent when you're convinced your second-grade son is having more fun doing the Kumon advanced math program than watching Saturday morning cartoons." Kathy Hirsh-Pasek states that there are two competing developmental views of children. 1) A child is an empty vessel to be micromanaged by you. 2) A child is a discoverer, an explorer, and you are his or her guide.
Which one is your view?
