[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you PP.

I'm the PP who said it's complicated (but not the famous "it's complicated" poster from old YY threads!).  There are a couple reasons our family would object.  2 of them have been well-detailed in this and other threads.  If you don't understand those points by now, you never will.  And the other reason is something we will certainly raise with the administration and Yu Ying community if this issue ever gets posed to us.  If this becomes something YY seriously takes up again, we'll be sure to share our observations and concerns.  But I've seen how conversations about this go here.  No interest in doing battle with anonymous posters.[/quote]

Do you have a link to any of these threads which detail the case you are unwilling to make?  I tried searching for "Yu Ying" "test-in" and got at least 13 pages.  The entire first page and most of the second was links to this very thread.  The search function here is anything but precise.  This thread itself is 16 pages long.  If a clear and well-made case is out there, it's not easy to find.

It's hard not to question the integrity of a YY parent who opposes more fluent Mandarin speakers in the classroom.  Or the parenting skills, for that matter.  Sorry, but if you think you can enhance your own child's success by limiting the competition on the playing field, you are doing him no favors in life.[/quote]

Wow, just because you haven't read or can't find them, do you seriously expect another parent to go sorting through them and linking back for you?  Are you kidding me?  The entitlement on DCUM truly knows no bounds.  Did you have some laundry you wanted someone here to also do for you?   :roll:[/quote]

Or she could always make the point, if a good one exists.  "Trust me the case has been made, I just can't be bothered to tell you what it is, but it's good and persuasive, just take my word for it" isn't a particularly strong argument.  It smells of "I don't want anybody with an advantage my child doesn't have to get better scores than precious snowflake."[/quote]
