[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is so confused and doesn't understand what AAP is about. What should I tell her? [b]She keeps asking me, "but how did I get in?" [/b]"[b]why isn't everyone in?[/b]" "but what does it mean?" "[b]What would have happened if I did't get in.[/b]" We're thinking of doing LLIV so I was explaining that she will be in 4-6 with the same kids each year and she kept asking "but why can't X be in that class too. We read the same books." [b]X didn't get in[/b]. [/quote] If your child is asking all these things about "getting in," then it sounds like you approached this whole AAP thing like it's an exclusive club. You've instilled that anxiety in your kid. Now she's confused why her friends aren't in the club. And you've make that club even more exclusive because she'll be with only those people in the club for the next few years. [b]It sounds like you yourself don't get AAP. [/b] [/quote] Bingo.[/quote]
