A fellow parent was over when my son was doing his math homework when he brought it to me for me to look over, I told him he had wrong answers and needed to rework them. The other parent told me that was a form of cheating, because I am letting my son know that he got wrong answers. What?? I didn't tell him the answers, I simply pointed out that he had answered the problems incorrectly. He(the other parent)told me that it is the teacher's job & my involvementis helping my son cheat. I completely disagree. Teachers follow a standardized curriculum and don't have the extra time like they did when we were in school. Plus, this lets me know if he needs additional help in certain areas. He admitted hes never gone to school with his daughter, but was adamant that I was helping my son cheat. BTW, his daughter flunked Kindergarten & 1st grade and barely passed 2nd grade. My son is an A/B honor student(I am very proud). Am I helping my son cheat or aiding in his education and comprehension?
