Thanks for bringing things into perspective, Grinity! The school deals with the top 1% for that age group. The programme is known to be rigourous but the homework load is intensive. The thought now makes me shiver because it's obvious DS doesn't plan on writing much. And as long as he has to keep pace with a class of children and not have his own time to mull or spurt, it will be tough.
I never thought of him as being addicted to the energy in the class. But you have a point here. He's definitely addicted to praise and attention from the teacher. Except attention comes in many ways.
Yes that's so true - the idea of social interactions whether or not within the school context should be my focus. He needs friends, yet he can't seem to find one to truly exchange ideas with. Unfortunately, it's a reality for him. I can only ensure that the opportunities abound.
Tks once again
(BTW, NHA has been working like a dream with my little one!!)
