I appreciate all of your comments. I completely agree that 5 is way too young to project about college. My husband and I had never really given it much thought or talked about it at all until yesterday after the psychiatrist made his comments. It just made us question our choices a little bit. We have always talked about taking it year by year to see what will work best for our son. We realize Connections isn’t going to work for too long, but for now it’s working out well.
I guess we were more concerned that by allowing him to jump up, we would be setting him up for future complications and issues. Although we will likely homeschool him for the foreseeable future and in that case it doesn’t matter at all about what “grade” the material is.
