[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The original post was on target! Why do you assume it is a demographic issue? No one mentioned race, religion or any of that. This is about the age of Kindergarten entry. Trisomy 21 and SES don't apply here. The 7 year-old Kindergarden kid is going to feel stupid when he realizes how much older he is by third grade. Not only is he going to think he is stupid, his peers will too. I hear my friends and neighbors saying "Oh he is not ready." and "He is not book smart." That is so sad to me.

Don't pretend you don't know it is true. [/quote]

You are the only pretender here.  Are you in the head of the 7-year-old who is feeling stupid when he realizes how much older he is by third grade?  It appears you are also in the head of his peers who will think he is stupid?  How do you know how 3rd graders think? "I hear my friends...he said ... she said ... logic".  It appears you have identical thoughts to third graders; thus, probably paranoid schizophrenia with hallucinations or someone with a similar budding level of intellectual accomplishment.

I am laughing because I can't even get offended by your denial. You and I both KNOW children will be children, and they will tease and torment the other child who is much older.

By the way, I have 2 master's degrees in early child development and a PhD in Psychology, in case you think I am hallucinating!

Peace and honesty from the realist!![/quote]
