“I dispute this “reasoning” on the grounds that most people probably do not remember with whom they went to kindergarten. I sure as heck don’t.”
I “sure as heck” do! Went to school with those same kids throughout Grade School, Jr. High, and Senior High!
All my kids are still in school with the kids they went to kindergarten with.............and even though I moved away from my kindergarten I can remember a lot about it.
