One granddaughter went to Head Start. When she started, she knew her colors, ABCs, could count to twenty, and was doing some basic addition.

After being repeatedly informed that she couldn't know all that, they dumbed her back to their idea of what she should know according to them.

None of my other grandkids ever went to Head Start, and she recovered.

I had the same experience with my son in Kindergarden...in 1975! I was told that year was for “SOCIALIZATION”....from then on I was a very leary Young mother when it came to “education.”
