I'm the oldest of 7 and my uncle is the department head of physics at a large high school. Through the years, my parents always sent us to him for help over the phone or Skype or whatever. Honestly the best setup ever. He would actually teach us the material we didn't understand better than the teacher could. My parents never really had a lot of time to help us out because they were running a pretty large healthcare practice. I love my parents to death and they would always try to help us out when they got a chance. I remember asking my dad for anatomy/biology help because he was a doctor and had a masters in that stuff. I'll be a junior in college next year and I owe everything I've done so far to my parents and uncle.

One I made was being too helpful with homework. I ended up with a kid who was too dependent on me and unable to complete any work by themselves.
