[quote=Anonymous]Everyone,

Thank you for all the replies. I should add that both our twins started at this school in what is essentially the "infant" class--the starter classroom, with kids as young as 18 months. Once they demonstrate enough self-sufficiency in that class, they "graduate" to the class that is largely made up of 3-5 year olds, in which there are fewer teachers to students. My son is still in that first class and apparently shows little signs of being ready to move on, according to them, while my daughter has moved on to the 3-5 year old class.

I also feel like all this stress and judgment about a kid who literally just turned three less than a month ago is frankly a bit nuts. And it's certainly taking its toll on me--I can think about virtually nothing else all day other than, "Is my son normal?" But I don't want to make excuses and I don't want blind optimism or wishful thinking to prevent us from taking action to help him along in his development, if in fact that's what he needs.

Again, thank you all. It helps to have a forum in which to talk about this.
