[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD will be 4 at the end of august and therefore turn 5 just before the start of kindergarten. DD has an older brother and we are a middle class family. DD as a result is 'advanced' and seems to be hurtling through milestones and not stopping to smell the childhood roses. DD seems intent of catching up with her brother who is five years older and because she is exposed to so much more thanks to him soaks up and does more than he did at that age. I am afraid she is however going to miss out on the more important aspects of childhood, which will be too difficult to capture and recreate later during the rat race of elementary school. We are actively considering holding her back to slow her down. Are we insane?[/quote] What are the more important aspects of childhood, how is she missing out on them, and how would holding her back make her not miss out on them? Some people have a smell-the-roses personality, some people don't.[/quote]
