[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why the sensitivity about kids social v heavy AP/CC credits? I'm the PP who mentioned my DD wants a different HS experience. I didn't call anyone a loser or criticize anyone else's choice. I simply said my kid wants a different experience. One of her best friends is crushing HS - probably 2 yrs ahead of her in math and is also a very talented musician with multiple state and national level awards. He prefers to play and write music in his free time so isn't as social, by choice. When he walks on stage and sits in the first chair, I couldn't be happier for him and couldn't care less about his social activities. When he's playing, I'm sure no one's wondering if he was at Larla's party Saturday night. HS is an individual experience based on each kid's goals and choices, so there's no right or wrong option.[/quote]

Would you turn to his mother in the audience and say, "What a different HS experience. Larlo had. I mean, my DD is taking quite a few AP classes, but also wants to have time with friends and participate in her activities!"

Then don't say it on the internet.[/quote]
