[quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of it has to do with "fit" and what your DC needs in terms of support at various points in their academic career and where they are on the learning continuum. What may have fit for several years in elementary school may not work for middle school so we as parents have to be ready to make the adjustments that are in the best interest of our children and get over the prestige of the school name or worry about what others may think. They are not with you at night as your DC spends several tortuous hours languishing over homework that may be too challenging without adequate support. We also can't live in denial when it becomes obvious that the work is too challenging or rigorous, which may signal a learning disability. It can manifest itself later in the school years. It doesn't mean that our children won't be successful. They just may need another approach to learning.[/quote]
