[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An eleven month old and a 13 month old might both be early walkers. If you’re having a class for early walkers, it would make sense for the 10 month old and 13 month old to start together. (Not that this class would exist. It would be silly). If you’re teaching math, it would make sense to have all the kids ready to learn the same concepts at the same time in the same way with the same attention. This is what private schools do that apparently is beyond the comprehension of public school age advocates. This is why the classrooms are so much more chaotic than private. Because the people designing them are not focused on learning.[/quote] But this would never be based on their parents' judgment of what topics they were ready to learn with no objective input. I don't think anyone objects to kids getting held back for actual, verified developmental reasons. That is 100% not what this is aimed at.[/quote]
