[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And American parenting techniques and American child psychology studies seem to change completely every decade or so, so that "study" you cite will probably change in a few years.
I'm also sure if I look I can find a contradictory study.

Also, European countries send almost all their toddlers to government paid creches at age 12 or 18 months.  And guess what, these countries are kicking our butts in the education arena.

I have 4 kids and have seen parenting/psychology change from my oldest to my youngest.  I am now watching the negative effects [b]Common Core and Everyday Math [/b]are having on my children.  But hey, it has been "studied" and is the best way to teach.  BS.  It, like so many other studies will be abandoned in a few years as a new group of "psychologists" complete their studies[/quote]

The Common Core standards are NOT a way to teach. They are standards; they are not a curriculum.

Everyday Math is a curriculum. It's been around since 1998.
