I have to admit though that I don't give a hoot about them scoring DS low on their scale for "self control" and "knowing when to speak" and in all the other "lets raise sheep that follow" categories. What they consider a weakness is what really drives his thirst for learning. He doesn't act out ... he's asking for more information. Yet another reason why I think homeschooling for now will be a better choice. His self control and behavior is just fine when he's at home or out in public with us, his parents. But I have been to his class once and had a chance to see how easily lost he gets in there and feels the need to talk and ask more questions because we keep telling him that he goes to school to LEARN.
