[quote=Anonymous]This is so ridiculous. I know so many people in early intervention who will tell you that the benchmarks are BS at this stage. The goal is to make systems look good by pushing kids ahead so that they're in honors, AP and IB courses. So don't fool yourself into thinking your cherubs are gifted. By the time the kids are assessed, those who have come from disadvantaged homes will lag behind those who have experienced enrichment during their short lifetime b/c the Tiger Mom is in full force. Leave your kids alone. They need to eat dirt, play in the grass, run around the yard, throw snowballs, beg for candy, and "earn" a few scars and bruises. just amazing[/quote]
