[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, I think even though you were not trying to "shield" you DS, you were doing exactly that. You were trying to protect him from any potential negative feedback if he did not make the cut. I think that is the definition of "shielding". Why not just be upfront with him? Kids are not that fragile.[/quote] I am the PP that initially used the word shielding. I can not help it if you are such a witch that you would label 83% of the second graders as failure. I just did not see why DD needed to have any information on the process. I want her to be a happy child. No one in my area of Vienna talked about AAP, the kids did not know who applied. We only found out who was in based on the class rooms. If you think that it is not appropriate to shield a 7 yo from some things in the world, that is your problem. [/quote]
