This is how it’s done. We step out of the system, out of the matrix, out if their control.

You can do both. My two sons are awesome and blow the doors off academically despite my shortcomings. One great help was no cable, no cell phones, no laptops until they were late teens. This allowed room for creativity, reading, and lots of time outdoors.... but the most valuable thing, in my mind, was the prayer, bible instruction, and explaining the world around them--- spiritual, emotional, mental, as life happened. Meanwhile my husband taught them very practical hands- on skills. I'm super proud of them but don't talk about them much to people I know because their kids are often struggling. I'd feel like a bragadocious ass. People have a hard time being happy for others and when your kid is struggling there can be a lot of pain and regret. I'm grateful for the time with my boys. They're growing up now and I have no regrets.
I agree with you 100% and I supplement my children's Education with the help of my wife. I have one graduating this year and already accepted into a competitive UF program.
That was not u/Pristine point and he clearly stated that:
I know that he is selfish. I have 15 downvotes (record for me here) but I am right.
Good person includes training... My son could probably wipe the mat with you academically. But that's ULTIMATELY not what I wanted. I wanted a good person. There are plenty of smart people that are terribly evil. Call me selfish if you like, but you don't know me or my family. And I think maybe you should learn to bridle your tongue. Good day.
I think you should learn to close your mouth in public if you aren't ready for a conversation.
Your assumptions are laughable and sound a lot like keyboard warrior stuff.
Your statement made you selfish, not me.
If you'd like to amend it and prioritize Academics then you know where the edit button is.
