[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16:59 I take it you the regular obtuse, idiotic poster. Every village needs a town idiot but really, enough is enough. [/quote]

I'm not 16:59. I am wondering which parts of 16:59's statements you disagree with. Are you

1. Not happy that your child is learning, retaining, learning how to think? (If so, why? Do you want your child to not learn and not learn how to think, or do you think that your child is not learning?)
2. Very interested in the competition with other kids to get into something? (If so, why?)
3. Disbelieving of the idea that if a kid loves to learn and knows how to get information and think critically and analytically, then they can do anything? (If so, why? Do love of learning, etc., reduce a child's ability to do things? Or are love of learning, etc., insufficient for being able to do anything?)

I know that responding to these questions with answers is more difficult than responding with insults, but nonetheless I am hoping for answers instead of more insults. [/quote]
I am 16:59 and I thank you
As for the poster to whom you are speaking, it's all good, my old school, Pre-2.0 education has taught me that
Haters Gon' Hate[/quote]

NP here - If you child gets a P, do you know how much your child is learning, retaining, learning how to think? Competition for programs aside, the issue is that a P can be everything from an A to a C and I am pretty sure if your child came home with consistent Cs, that would be a signal that your child is having problems learning, retaining or learning how to think. So what does a P tell you?

And if you have a child that doesn't want to sit and do math problems or essays for the love of learning, without some connection between grades and expectations, why would that child make sure he or she actually does a good job and understands the lesson being imparted rather than just finish it up quickly and turn it in so they can focus on something else?
