[quote=Anonymous]NP here. I have two children. I'm of the mindset: do not impede, do not promote. That is why I won't prep. If one child ended up qualifying for AAP I would not prevent them from going, but I can not, in good conscience, do anything to promote it. Separating them, labeling them differently, I think, is pretty terrible for the sibling relationship. It exacerbates a very small difference. They are not that far apart in their abilities. If one of them were a true academic outliner, I might feel differently. I want to give them an equal start. I want them to have experiences in common, especially early educational experiences. What they achieve later in their educational career, I know, will be due to individual strengths and work ethic, but I want them to be offered the same beginning.[/quote]
