[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I learned that someone from school/PTA/Community should volunteer to watch younger kids in a room next door for the next orientation ... And then create an activity for the newly selected AAP kids: an 8 year old can't sit through a PowerPoint presentation for 1 hr... And a toddler can't handle it for like 10 minutes.[/quote]

This is kind of nuts.  [b]I was shocked that the prospective AAP kids at our open house.  DD wanted to hear what they were saying- it lasted only about 30 min at most and some of the kids there had horrible behavior. [/b]

Also- I left younger sibling at home with the other parent.  Both didn't need to be there.  No problem if you couldn't, but don't expect strangers to accept responsibility for your younger DC.[/quote]

Unfortunately, this is what I see on a daily basis at our center school.  AAP kids seem to think they're in charge and actually [i]talk down[/i] to teachers and librarians.  It's really something to see - and not in a good way.  At all.[/quote]
