[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Child development is child development, no? If the standards are too demanding for poor kids but too easy for affluent kids, then the standards are not DEVELOPMENTALLY inappropriate. [b]Unless child development for poor kids is different from development for affluent kids?[[/b]/quote] [b]It is. Very different. [/b] Incredibly different. We have kids who are growing up in totally different circumstances. Go into one of those homes and experience life there. You won't see anything that is like what is going on in your home. I guarantee it. Some of what you will see is downright horrible. [/quote] Nobody is denying that there are some children who are growing up in horrible circumstances. However, it's a very big step from there to the idea that affluent kids develop differently from poor kids.[/quote]
