[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother went to first grade in Sweden not knowing a word. He picked it up. Can't believe how selfish people are. [b]I bet the kid who is translating is picking up a valuable skill both in improving their english and spanish[/b] and the development of empathy. [/quote]

And what about the other 20 who are slowed down? Does their education matter?[/quote]

Do you have any idea what it means to be part of a community? It doesn't mean that my kid gets every single stinking thing they want all the time. [b]Sometimes [/b]someone else's kid gets more. [b]Sometimes [/b]a kid who is less privileged gets the help they need while my more privileged kid has to wait around. I highly doubt that YOUR child will somehow miss the ability to spell and do math on account of this kid. If you don't want to have to accommodate anyone else then you should homeschool. [/quote]

"Sometimes" ... does NOT mean everyday, all day, for every class lesson. That is what is happening here. [/quote]

OP posted on September 6, aka the third day of school, and does not seem to have returned to the thread. I think it's safe to assume that this situation will not continue every day, all day, for every class lesson, from September 6 through June 15.[/quote]
