[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 2.5 yo who is pretty independent (wants to do everything by herself). Here is where she is:

- completely and independently toilet trained - has been potty trained for 6 months including night trained. But still needs help with clothing, getting up/down from toilet and wiping 
- putting on and taking off own shoes - depends on the shoe. Can handle Mini Melissas, Crocs and Natives. Needs help with sneakers, sandals and boots
- blowing nose - can dab nose but not really wipe effectively. Doesn't really blow. I basically have to handle. 
- dressing yourself - totally depends on clothing. Loose stuff with elastic - can handle. But she rarely wears that stuff and I mostly dress her. 
- entering the classroom on your own feet (no being carried in) - check
- using a fork and spoon - check
- drinking from an open cup - check but I give her sippy cups for my benefit.

Me again. This is my third child and I think their list is crazy if they expect kids to be able to do everything on it independently. So much so that they obviously don't have reasonable expectations and I probably wouldn't send my child there. [/quote]
