WTF is with people? tutor for kindergarten

[Mr.WeakTight]

What is this person thinking??

kindergarten tutor

the main purpose of kindergarten is 1) socialization 2) learn how to listen to someone other than mom/dad/nanny 3) learn to read a little bit and some basic math

I could understand if this kid was disabled. but wtf, you're worried about your kid falling behind in kindgergarten? or wanting them to get to the head of the class? get your kid some playdates.

why can't people just let kids have a childhood? Is it that they're projecting themselves onto their kid? what chance does this kid have of turning out normal? yikes.

Kids should be able to read before entering kindergarten.

As a parent, it's negligent to not have your child literate by the time they start school.

There's nothing wrong with parents who want their kid to be ahead of the class.

Ah, it's not like housetraining a dog. Not all children will be "literate" before they start kindergarten. That's why they have something called, ah, school.

Kids don't need to be literate before school. However its obviously a benefit. I'd take over-enthusiastic parent like this guy over negligent I-don't-give-a-[censored]-if-my-kid-can-read parent.
