Kumon: The Shared Trauma of a Generation.

TikTok users are sharing their traumatic experiences with Kumon, a worksheet-based study program designed to help children improve their math and reading skills. While some people credit the program for improving their math skills, others describe it as the "biggest trauma of their life" and a "depressing" experience. Many people on TikTok say their parents would "threaten" them with Kumon worksheets or even force them to take the worksheets along on vacation.
