[quote=Anonymous]Oh my god, the amount of "my kid is so smart and so much better than yours" on this thread!!! My child was newly 5 when she started Kindergarten and it was overwhelming for her. She came from a preschool that taught her basically what OP is saying the HBO Kindergarten class did (she knew her letters and letter sounds, numbers, she had the appropriate social skills, she's a smart little girl) yet Kindergarten was tough. She was newly 5 and not ready to read (it's only just now clicking in first grade and even then she is "behind"). I WISH we could go back to the way school used to be. I feel like my generation turned out great - I am an analyst by trade who has a foundation of strong reading, writing, math, and science skills from a good midwestern school system in the 80s. I don't think my child is getting nearly as good of an education as I did.[/quote]
