When I met with his teacher, she said she will not allow her kids to take algebra in 7th because their brains are not developmentally able to fully understand abstract concepts. I have since read that elsewhere (untangled). My view is just because you can doesn't mean that you should. Especially when we see that college is all a crapshoot. It's the careful balance of being strategic, but enjoying your one life. Same reason he will not go to tj.
I never want my children subjected to adults with such low prejudices of their potential.
