Slow Start in the Academic World...
Dear mommies, I have not been the best parent to my 1st grader when he was a preschooler and kindergartener. Apparently he is not as interested in school and reading as I hoped he would be, and just realized it is my fault! I barely read to him, I did not encourage him when he accomplished things, and I did not encourage him to use his educational toys (v-tech video games, etc). I feel horrible, his grades are still decent, but his reading is at a level 3 (should be at least at a 6 according to his teacher's report). He gives up so...
