Current waiting for them to finish a math competition. Taking questions.

In my experience, no kids willingly do this stuff. Also, we are white, so they constantly talk about how they have no friends. For example, last week a middle school kid was unaware of LeBron James and another thought the world series included teams from all over the world.
On one hand, I appreciate that stuff doesn’t matter. On the other, my kids literally can’t talk about anything other than the subject matter because these kids are beyond uncool.

do you just let them gravitate to what they love or push them into things/subjects?
screen time?

Mostly push. If they are good at it, competitiveness kicks in, and virtuous cycle begins.

My kids are still young, so the push is needed. Hoping that changes over time.

Screen time is unavoidable, but we try to avoid Tiktok-type stuff. Their algorithm is heavy on science/math/chess, so it could be worse, but we still hate it.

Not a bad idea, but hard to implement. They talk gaming all day with their friends in school.

No, my son isn’t old enough to see it (I don’t think), but my son gets eyed like a god by South/East Asians and Eastern euros at these events. It won’t be long before he sees it too.

Not Asian, but most people at these events are Asian. I respect the effort, although easy to overdo it.

My wife is white. Not much of a cook, if I’m being honest.

being "good at math" hits a point of rapid diminishing returns before long. i wouldn't go too far with this.

Yeah, but good for logical reasoning and good for kids to feel like they can accomplish difficult things other kids cannot.
