[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not everyone is excited by the same things. So, not all kids will be either. I remember being in school as young at K or first grade and being bored by some of the things being taught. I don’t think it’s because I was smarter than all the other kids and I didn’t act out either. I just sat there, not super interested or impressed with certain things. Not every kid clicks with every teacher either. These are other reasons a kid could legit be bored at school.[/quote]

Right, but did your parent drone on to other parents about how bored you were in school?

I don’t think anyone is saying it isn’t possible for kids to be legitimately bored in school for a variety of reasons.  But whether parents should be telling other parents of kids in the same grade/class how bored their child is. It is pretty common knowledge that is (one) euphemism for my child is too smart for the class.  It is one thing if you are talking frankly with a close friend. But it sounds like this is casual mom chatter from acquaintances [/quote]
