[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The “truly advanced” kids will be okay. [/quote] Let's remove AAP then, since they'll be okay anyways[/quote]

I have long advocated this. Do away with program. Would solve a LOT of problems. And money. [/quote]

What money would it save? Students will still need teachers, transportation, materials, etc. The cost of a handful of AAP Center buses is negligible.

The only problems it would solve would be freeing up the parents who continually slam a program their kids didn't get in.

Find another hobby.[/quote]

When the AAP 4 kids and parents get off their high horse about how much better they are I will have a better opinion of the program.  
When my kid has to listen to other kids at THE POOL OVER THE SUMMER talk about how much better their class is it's too much.  It's constant!
Seems like the AAP families who are constantly harping about it need a better hobby...[/quote]

This is your chance to teach your child that not all kids will have the same school experience. Some need help with reading, some are terrible at PE, some are in an advanced program. Life isn’t the same for every person, what a boring world that would be.

Assure them the teachers will make sure they have an amazing year.

If your kid is razzled by kids at the pool, help them process it. This stuff is parenting 101. [/quote]

Strange that you assume someone isn't parenting because they are annoyed that a certain circumstance keeps occuring.  
Can parent the heck out of the situation and still feel a certain way about it.

It’s also a good parenting opportunity to teach your kid not to be a cocky a**hole about getting into AAP. [/quote]
