[quote=Anonymous]We moved our 4YO DD from a regular pre-school based program into Montessori. I had a feeling that the focus on independence and self-directed learning would appeal to her. Also, the "purposeful" work aspect. She is really flourishing there and seems to love it. When I picked her up from school before the change she couldn't wait to leave. Now I have a hard time pulling her away from whatever project she is working on. I'm not sure our DS would have done so well in Montessori since he has a very different personality. But maybe it would have been good for him. He is in 1st grade now and has some self-control issues. I don't think DD's Montessori program is as strict as the one OP describes. If it were, we might not be happy there either. Good luck OP. These are really tough decisions, but I agree with others. You should go with your gut. [/quote]
