Every child is different, some are more able, others are average and some have special educational needs. Each child has his or her strengths and weaknesses. I think I have to accept my children as they are. Unlike me my teenage son is excellent at Maths and he struggles with spelling in English lessons. However that issue affects all the other academic subjects. I am a primary school teacher so I have the knowledge of how to teach him. However he works hard at school and does a limited amount of extra work for me because of all the homework from his teachers. No parent wants to drive his or her son or daughter from liking school. It is important in the home that the child feels valued and gets praise for all the success that has come their way. Good luck.

AS a mother I was making mistakes al the time. No one teaches a mother how to raise their kids. And all children are different. We can only give them love and hope they will turn out allright. You say you want your child as "smart" as his friends. What makes you whink he is behind? And if he is, couldn´t he be less intelligent than others? Remember you have to acxcept your hild as he is instead of wanting him to be what you didn´t achieve. If he is a normal and happy boy, that´s all it matters. Take care

If you think your child is behind all other children in terms of academic, I think you should send him for tuition. Maybe you can slowly coach him at home too.

Share the world with your children. Children learn about the world by experiencing it. No textbook or class can replace hands on, experiential learning. Provide many opportunities to explore the world. Go to the museums, parks, nature centers, libraries, concerts, sing-a-longs, fairs, theaters and various performances. Relax and trust in your children's natural ability to learn.

My parents read to me when I was small every night and showed me the good side of things. I was never exposed to bad mean things, and never hung out with those kids and I was in catholic school too were there are no bad kids. And my parents are moderatly strict to make sure I didnt turn out bad.
