[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] "Well, I guess I got just a little carried away with this post and wrote too much. What I should have said, succinctly, is my kid is the smartest child in the universe, don't you agree? And your dumb ass kid in the 98th percentile should stay the hell out of my kid's way. Your urchin belongs in Gen. Ed. with the unwashed masses. There now. Just putting it into words makes me feel so superior. I'm waiting for agreement. Still waiting."[/quote] I'm sorry you took my post that way. Your sarcasm is way over the top but I'll try my best to ignore it. Here's what you don't know: I have four children. I was only referring to one of them in my previous comments. All of them are smart and talented but only one is gifted and that is no big deal. We approach their education differently because they are all different kids. I was simply sharing my experience with the one who needs an AA type program to succeed to her potential. My two sons are super students, work harder than she but are doing super in Gen Ed so there's no reason to move them when they need the structure of Gen. Ed. I have another daughter in Spec Ed who is doing great too, in an environment that helps her achieve and exceed her potential as well. I must admit I think you read my post with a measured degree of bias. Just relax, your kids (all kids) are great too, nobody is challenging that. I simply believe that people put waaaay too much pressure on their kids to get into AA and I was sharing that belief, and the basis behind it, in as respectful a manner as possible. [/quote][/quote]
