[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Montessori is touted as the best but in all reality it [b]works well for some kids and not others.[/b] We toured a variety of schools and my child surprised me by liking the most structured one out of them all. I would never had him continue past a month if drop offs were that bad.[/quote] I agree with this. It also varies widely in how it's interpreted and implemented. I've been too some schools where it is extremely rigid and others where the atmosphere is more relaxed but still using the Montessori Method. I've also known kids who cry every day at drop off for play based preschools at two years old and sometimes even older. Sometimes, it's just a sensitive kid. Other times, the teachers, the atmosphere, the other kids can all make a difference. In the end, it wasn't the right school for your kid. And I too would wonder about my kid if he had that reaction in seeing a former teacher. She may have been too strict.[/quote]
