Ultimately, we want our kids to develop love for learning. A  passion  for learning is quite different from just studying to earn a grade or to please parents or teachers. Those who develop a  love  of learning at an early age continue the process throughout their lives and are generally more successful, interesting, and happier than those who don't.
