[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Me again from 11:00am.

At nearly all of the Montessori schools that we saw, the questions ran the gamut of very *very* personal (like, how long did you breastfeed?  were there any birth complications?) to more general/understandable probes (like, how does your toddler deal with tantrums?  how do you discipline your child? or how long do you plan to keep your child at the school?).  They reminded me of how I felt once when asked when I intended to get married & how many children I wanted to have by my prospective employer in France!

The very personal ones can make you squirm, so get ready to deal with them the best that you can.  Unlike job interviews, I don't think there is much that is forbidden in terms of questioning.  Maybe someone else can answer why they ask such things.  But for me, I just rolled with it and still feel strongly that the positives of the education style far outweigh any discomfort in questioning.[/quote]

bumping this up.
