[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks - I just felt a little cornered at a recent family gathering when I was being told that this was the only way to go and I just can't understand it. The one relative in particular who was most pushy held back her son even though he was very strong academically and still claimed that it was the best thing she'd ever done and why he got full marks in his SATs. I wondered how he wasn't bored, in that case. Isn't it better to be challenged than to be bored? She also insisted that socially in high school kids can be very mean etc etc. Of course, I have no idea how my sweet, charming 4 year old will do in a high school environment! Right now, I already feel that he has better social skills and problem solving skills than I do!!![/quote]
