[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So typically American! We can't just have a preschool where you go outside a lot - it has to be a Nature Preschool (tm) where you spend ALL DAY outside in opposition to the Wrong Ideas about Children that those other people have. [/quote]

These outdoor preschools are much more common and popular in Europe. They wrote an article about this one because it is unusual. [/quote]

My point isn't about whether some other place has "nature preschools" but rather the cyclical nature of US Internet-mediated child raising fads. [/quote]

Or maybe it's a diverse country filled with people from so many different backgrounds that you can find extremes of almost any type of belief? And maybe the press enjoys emphasizing extremes in order to drive readership rather than objectively reflecting the non-extremes that dominate our culture?

You seem overly media-saturated while at the same time assuming naively it's a true reflection of life.[/quote]
