Challenges are necessary? - 10/18/12 02:53 PM
DS3 is currently in preschool, which teaches materials that he knew already.
Our goal for preschool is for him to learn the social aspect of school, routine, follow directions, etc.
He was telling me last night that they were teaching phonics at school, and I made a casual comment about he knew the materials already. DS said he likes easy things, which is true. He avoids challenging (but totally doable) tasks in general unless I accompany him.
I don’t want to be overly paranoid, but is it a cause for concerns?
