[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why is 5 the magic number? Because you say so? [/quote] No, because the state, or the school guidelines say so, except for that 80% the pp noted where it is vanity or "to give and edge" to a 5 year old in an artificial manner. [/quote] Thanks but I will defer to my instincts and understanding of what my son needs, not follow a govt bureaucrat who can't go beyond what it is written on a piece of paper. Here is an example of another mom who didn't follow the system. Don't be a lemming. Think for yourself and what is best for your kid. http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/book-review-the-spark-a-mothers-story-of-nurturing-genius-by-kristine-barnett/2013/05/17/e3763448-9ba4-11e2-9a79-eb5280c81c63_story.html [/quote]
