[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I would guess that children in Montessori programs, who aren't given very much opportunity to interact with other children, would be less inclined to hit other children! I toured one Montessori school (a very well-regarded one with a long waiting list) and had the same impression as OP. I didn't even fill out an application. I ran as fast as I could and never considered Montessori after that. Since then I have noticed most Montessori children just seem a little socially "off." Whether they are overly shy or overly talkative, or something else. Anyone else notice this?[/quote] I used to nanny for a little boy who attended a Montessori school. He got hit and or bit by other kids constantly. And he had a great teacher. I did notice that many of the parents were a little odd socially. Perhaps there was something about the Montessori method that drew those types of people to the school? [/quote]
