I'm concerned about this as well, which is another reason why I think that a trial period with the older kids is a good thing to ask for now...

You DD reminds me so much of my DS, and yes, he found that it was quite interesting and very satisfying to drive the classroom teachers crazy, and there was so little else for him to do with his time. Part of me wonders if all of those personality traits are inborn for her, or, at least partially, a result of not being placed with peer or given necessary stimulation by teachers.

When my son was 3 or 4, I was totally clueless that he was different from his classmates, so you are way ahead of me.

Love and More Love,
