[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 535779, member: 1514"] I dont think the fact that he simply knows his letters will make the school think there isnt a problem. They are supposed to come out of pre-k reading simple words, doing some math and doing other things I cant remember right now. Billy has a friend with a son who has almost the opposite problem with the school system. Now this little boy is 4 years old and is a normal boy. Pretty normal IQ tested at 115. No real behavior problems other than he is an active 4 year old. Not hyperactive, just happy, active, curious, little boy. This boys father is one of those guys who can take apart things and put them back together in a snap. He is a tad on the odd side. Well he has this little boy and then a little girl one year younger and he decided he wasnt going to wait on the schools to teach his kids to read, he wanted them to read with him earlier so he taught them to read! He also lets his son sit on his lap when he plays war video games. Well, in preK the teacher is teaching the kids their letters and then trying to teach them little words to form a sentence and his son yells out...yeah...The dog runs up the hill! Takes right over and wont let the teacher go through any of the teaching parts and then he just goes about his business. He is bored. He doesnt want to hear r... r... r... run. So the school keeps sending him home saying he is disruptive! Then heaven help him he drew Diablo for his art project...sigh. I told Billy to tell his friend to stop the video games unless he wants CPS at his house...lol. [/QUOTE]
