[quote=Anonymous]First, I think it's fine to let a kid that mature miss school to catch up on school work. Many adults do that, too. I think your biggest concern should be that your kid is too perfect - to the point that anything less than perfect causes her stress. How will she cope if her grades drop so she's #2 in her class? What will happen if she goes to college (Ivy League, no doubt) and earns less than straight A's? Before she goes off to college, make sure you let her know that she'll be fine if she's not always the top student. There have been so many issues with students at top schools having mental breakdowns and suicide attempts because they could not handle the environment.[/quote]
