[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would explain it to my child that this is part of going to a private school with small class sizes and schedules that allow going in later in the day (explaining how the local public high school would involve taking the bus and arriving at 730 am with classes all day, or whatever the local school does) And have him begin to manage his time as a way of progressing him towards the ultimate goal of said private school and my parenting in general, which is college and an independent functioning adult. I would frame it as Step 1 into becoming an adult: figure out what to do productively for a couple hours in the morning on a school campus. [/quote] You are right. My son has not expressed any problem with it besides a bit of an eyeroll about it. He is not complaining at all. It's me who thinks it's ridiculous to wait around so long.[/quote]
