[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don't understand why they move the kids about from year to year. I went to school in England and in Elem school you stayed with the same kids for 4 years until you went onto another school. I had a best friend at school for the whole 4 years. I have been a nanny here ( not a parent) and the poor kids make friends and then after every summer have to make new friends again. I'm all for making new friends but its sad when kids have to lose their old friends, theres something to be said for having a best friend at this age, especially for girls.[/quote] Just an opinion, but I think they do it because a lot of times the parents get cliquey and mean spirited (gossiping about the kids, leaving people out, accusing other kids of being the "favorites" for any earned achievement, etc.). I think it is a case of trading one minus for another.[/quote]
