| My son's Kindergarten teacher wants to stay back. I don't. What should I do?
This is always a difficult decision. What was it specifically that caused him to not be prepared? Unfortunately, the school system often tends to be very unhelpful to a child that is "falling behind." (I hate using that term) Especially from 1st grade on.Children can be nasty as well. Student errors are presented to the entire class rather than dealt with privately. If he is going into a traditional program and there are concerns about where he is academically, it's time to consider keeping him behind one more year now rather than moving him forward. That is a decision you will ultimately have to make.Matt
