preschool, kindergarten or home?

Rosalva Steinmann: sounds like your daughters ok instructor has unrealistic expectancies for infants. young infants this age like to socialise, some extra desirable than others. My son never outgrew this! Many kindergartens are too educational. This purely contraptions up the lil ones for failure. I say decide for the try. If he gets in, super.
