[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. I am not. Before becoming a mom, I was a preschool director (I have my masters in ECD). Preschool and socialization in our socio-economic group are totally and completely unnecessary. Little kid classes are fun, nice and cute but no child with a stable home life and educated parents or caregivers needs to attend or will gain much from it. Some studies even point to early school as a deterrent to creative thinking and personal exploration. [/quote] Wow, that’s sad that you think this. I’m the pp preschool teacher and my two primary focuses during the school year are socio-emotional development, and open-ended exploration. No worksheets, no crafts where the end result of the project is to look the same as everyone else’s. I agree that many kids would be fine without 3 years of preschool, but at least one to learn some social skills....helpful in my opinion.[/quote]
