[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Totally. Any kid who gets a B is certainly struggling. I mean B basically is a failure, right?[/quote]

Well, multiple B's won't get you into a decent college. DD hasn't received any but just started 5th grade and we're wondering what to expect.[/quote]

Multiple B’s won’t get you into a DECENT college?

You people are seriously sick. This is not healthy or normal in any way, shape or form. [/quote]

What, planning ahead? Multiple Bs in high school won't even get kids into the program I went to these days. And if they can't manage As in elementary school...[/quote]

Not how that works. I got B's in elementary school and still got A's in high school, undergrad and law school. [/quote]

But the work gets harder. That doesn't make any sense.[/quote]

Maturity plays into this so much. Getting an A in ES is really about good behavior and following instructions. Things like differences in intellectual curiosity, varied experiences and developing organized thinking make a big difference too; and these are cumulative contributions to intellectual development that may not be accessible at the ES level just yet.[/quote]
