Same thing with my 8 year old. He's complaining about school being boring and slow. Up until now, he was fine. We have the same problem with immaturity being perceived as inability to handle a higher grade. He loves potty jokes, doing things hoping to annoy me, and being wild and silly...but I chalk that up to being an 8 year old boy and am thankful I do not have to teach a classroom full of them!! We actually just got into DYS so when I get my assigned person, I am hoping to get advice from then as to how to approach the school regarding this. It makes me feel a little better to hear others go through the same thing. It is not like we are almost done with the school year for pete's sake...we have 4 full months to go!!! Nan
