Children Need to Master the Skills Numeracy

Besides the reading, numeracy skills is one of the basic skills that need to be controlled by our children.
When reading skills can expand the horizons of our children, then the count also has many benefits; including:
1. So that our children can better understand the universe and the laws applicable in it
2. So that our children can do with good planning and evaluation when he grows up
3. So that our children can make the correct design and construction
4. What is also equally important is that our children can be fair then so they can shop right then also so that they are not easily deceived And of course there are many more important value to the lives of our children.

Once the importance of numeracy skills, so that the parents - consciously or not - often 'force' children to quickly master the math properly.
Once the excitement of parents in encouraging children to be good at math, are often later become proportionally less. Parents start to panic if their children judged the late master arithmetic skills. Especially when parents see children my own age so many have mastered the skills of numeracy well ....., panic can develop into resentment, anger, etc..
And just like other skills, to be able to count properly required a process:
1. Children need to understand the numbers and counting process
2. Then began to be introduced with the symbol number
3. After that taught the concept of arithmetic operations.


why then we lose control while guiding your child understand math problem? We tend to be unfair to the children when dealing with arithmetic and mathematics in general?
Perhaps, once again we may unconsciously compare the child's thinking skills with us.
