[quote=Anonymous]To play devil's advocate here: wouldn't you want to know if, say, your child who is old for his/her grade was considerably less mature than the other children in the grade (who are, for argument sake, much younger). This could be helpful information for a parent to have. A teacher might believe that it it completely normal for a group of 1st graders to have a wide range of maturity levels...but a parent might have real developmental concerns if her child (who is 14-16 months older than most classmates) is considerably less mature. A parent might have legitimate motivations to assess her child relative to age in a way that a teacher might not. I don't think it means the parent has some sort of nefarious motives.[/quote]
