sorry, should clarify weren't as prevalent - or a constant concernI dunno... wasn't he a kid in '99?
Understandable. I can only imagine how many kids of yesteryear suffered from issues that went undiagnosed and changed their trajectory in life.
Columbine happened when I was in 8th grade. But I get your point. Only time I remember a psychologist coming in was when a classmate died in an accident.

Thinking about running for President just so I can get the nuclear launch codes and send a missile into Solidworks HQ. Fucking fuck, what the fuck with this shit today?
If public schools had par preschool, she would be in it. Unfortunately the southern part of my county is CoSprings North and doesn't believe in taxes, so there is no money. So, we pay out of pocket to the tune of $333/week for Hannah to go there.Rich pre-school programs, rich schools, raising little elites from their early age on - I though hardcore progressives were preaching leveling the ground and equal opportunities for all?
@jonKranked, pretty sure you are the keeper of The Kill List. I've got a name that needs to be added.

Don't forget about the cover letter.
Ok some thoughts after checking out the program a little. My guess is, she will be fine doing it for 1.5 years. My oldest was much the same with being in a pre-K program for longer than she needed. For us, it was more about her learning to interact with other students (older and younger the second time). She has always been a high honors student and school has come relatively easy for her. The program your in is quite well organized so my immediate thought is that the school program can be augmented to offer her more of a challenge in an effort to stave off boredom. I would however highly recommend looking for some other activities for her outside of the classroom as well. Music, athletics, learning Spanish, science projects and LOTS of reading. Both of my girls read well above grade level (at least 2 grades) and have an easier time in all subject areas as a result. Literacy is the #1 indicator of achievement as so much of what we do in math, science etc. is dependent on a child's ability to read, comprehend and apply what they have read. Do remember, she's a kid and needs plenty of time to be a kid too so lots of trips to the park and splashing in puddles are necessary too!
Thank you!
Absolutely with kid stuff. I just want to make sure that while she's there - because it's daycare too - she's not in a veg out state. We give them both pretty much free reign for kid stupidity at home, so it's not like we're going tiger mom over here. Just want to make sure that she's not stagnant when she's at a huge learning point in her life.
You know... there's research indicating that being bored is *good* for kids.

A bored child needs moar choarz.
I did not get selected in the NHL draft. I think I understand why. Fuckers. I was really looking forward to finally winning the Stanley Cup. Tryouts for the Eagles are next week. I am going to ramp up my Chopped Cheese sandwich consumption starting today.
older brother taught a 12 year old kid to ride a bike on my old spooky pitboss at his kids scout meeting....brother posted a video and the kids dad was there in 10 minutes...he had been trying for awhile...

Heh. Mine would be:
Heating: 0 hours
Cooling: 3 hours
Our kids learned pretty early never to *tell* us they were bored.

It's amazing how more more interesting all that shit you bought them seems once labor is provided as an alternative.
My 6 year old is reading the hobbit. Or at least trying to. Just give her books.
Move to a country where education is free. But be prepared to pay the income taxes that give the government the financial possibility to do this.
It’s actually not a lot more. If you just dumped your ridiculous and useless loser military it would be better than free.Move to a country where education is free. But be prepared to pay the income taxes that give the government the financial possibility to do this.
But....but...wo would protect the free world from the Russians and Chinese then?
