Don’t say it!
Even if you believe it please don’t say it as a parent, “I’m not good at math” or “I don’t like math”. Why? Psychologists, teachers and researches agree on the negative impact of those statements on your elementary school child. The child’s dislike of math at that young age is limiting their future career, earnings and success.
What should you say? “I don’t understand that math concept, would you please explain it to me?” then listen and learn.

How will you respond to your child asking for help with math?
In my experience, and as I look forward, the subject of math is probably THE most important subject that our kids are choosing to avoid. As we all know, international competition for the future generations are excellent in discovering and learning math. Also, other countries and societies emphasizre math at every point in a young students life.
I applaude you for azttempting to get the message and the subject out into the eyes and ears of parents. Keep on ! Richard
