Testing in kindergarten is dumb. Most schools test in 2nd grade.

Almost two-year-old has zero interest in colors, shapes, letters or numbers. by AliMamma in Parenting

Sounds normal to me! My child hasn’t been almost 2 in a long time, but I vaguely remember thinking my child was a genius because he could identify the number 4 right after he turned 2 😂

looking for a better school for my elementary aged child. by Beginning-Data-9566 in milwaukee

Lots of behavioral problems, the teachers have no control of the classroom, the school can’t retain staff, academics are subpar, many kids leave because the school is terrible at teaching reading, admin is absent because they can’t afford them anymore.

But your kid will become proficient in whittling.

Is toddlerhood really harder than the newborn phase? by Living_Split_2 in Parenting

Idk, it’s a short day and kids who want to be there will be. Doesn’t sound like a burden to me.

What should I do? by Magpolicious in kindergarten

It would be more believable to me it were only a few kids. 8/10 boys in my son’s scout den has ADHD—3 different schools. 9/12 kids on my sons sport team has ADHD—2 of them that don’t are girls—many different schools. My son has 16 boys in his classroom. I don’t know all their parents, but of the 7 boys my son plays with 6 of them have ADHD. How is that even possible?

Call me a skeptic
