[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not going to 'chill out' - MY point is that I don't think kids get bored unless parents put that idea in their heads. My child has never said he is bored and he is the one reading far above kindergarten level. (If he is one of a few kids out of 60 who is pulled out for enrichment and he isn't bored...why would yours be?) [/quote] While I totally know the entitled whiny parents you're talking about, I'm just saying that it's also possible that the kids ARE bored and have said so. If they are unhappy with their kid's kindergarten experience and you're happy with it, I don't see why it's so hard for you to a) ignore them, b) say "My son, who is reading above grade level, is not bored" or c) say "I'm really sorry to hear that" and then move on to other conversation topics. It's only as big a deal as you make it.[/quote]
