[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]]Mom insisted on sending very bright Sept bday boy against the advice of Preschool teacher. K teacher also recommend another year in K, but mom refused as he had excellent academics. He was a GT kid and tested into old GT center. Mediocre performance in high school. College drop out. This kid is extremely bright. He is a good kid—not in trouble. I can’t help but wonder what another year would have done for him. [b]We will never know.[/b] He was socially immature, though. [/quote] Correct. Just as we'll never know what would have happened if my mother hadn't insisted on sending me to school early against the advice of the principal. (Quick summary of the results of my mother's decision: things turned out fine.) If we only made decisions with 100% certainty about the future, we would never make any decisions.[/quote]
