Do you 'enjoy' spending time with your kids?
- Yes, most of the time we really have fun together
- Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's really dull and aggravating
- Honestly most of the time it's not fun at all, but it's not supposed to be fun
- I really don't enjoy it at all, and wish I could spend less time with them

Why can't I seem to find the Dalton college placement list on their website?
8 replies [ Reply | Watch | MoreI find this on the website: http://www.dalton.org/program/high/counseling.asp
[ Reply | More ]You people know that stellar college placement is largely about how many mediocre kids they counsel out (yes, this could be your 99 ERB a few years down the line) and how many new kids they take in high school, right? A school with stellar college placement could be very good news for your dc or very bad news, and you won't know for many years to come.
[ Reply | More ]lol; people here refuse to believe that 99X3 (!) is not a recipe for guaranteed stellar academic success through high school. not at all. it means very little in that regard, but those 99ers just desperately cling to their little scores. it is a joke. i have seen the burn-out, peaked before age ten factor a few times now -- those highest-testing scores often had flashcard-happy helicopter parents whose perfectly bright kids were just not the geniuses they wanted them to be, and they pushed them too hard too soon. they consequently reared underachieving school-haters. 99erb is more indicative of a kind of early development and in truth, almost all kids will catch up by grade 2 or 4, and those earlier-developing kids are not stand-outs; THEN the real fun begins.
