While your child may find math a challenge in school, remind him or her that math skills are tested at the high school and college level, and those without basic skills are put into remedial classes.
The number of students entering college who need to take remedial math can reach 65 percent at some community colleges.
Therfore, whatever level math your child is taking, he or she needs to master the material, so as to not repeat it in the future. The extra effort he or she puts in now will save in time, tuition and book costs in the future.
