Ah, FINALLY! I can take her! Grin's in the lead with 1285 posts, and I'm in second place with 679. Well, 680 after this one. Think I can catch up while she's AWK?

OT note: When I taught school, I wrote AWK in the margin to denote an awkward bit of phrasing.

I don't think that suits Grinity! She's never AWK!

Dottie - someone's going to have to step up to the plate while Grinity's on the road. I think you're an excellent candidate! We don't want the board to come to a screeching halt. Go Dottie Go!

I'll be cheering from you Dottie Dear!

Just wanted to say happy holidays and thank you to everyone posting here. I've learned a lot in a few short weeks, and have been on the boards all too often. I'd better get some work done, but it's fascinating reading. And, reassuring. I had no clue that our DS' intensity and sensitivity, remembered slights by peers, intense worry about all sorts of risks, could all be "normal" in a certain group of kids. Where we are, things are so different. I never hear about parents trying to accelerate their kids - they try to "red-shirt" them instead - giving them a practice year of preschool before they start preschool, and then holding them back from kindergarten until 6. (I think this is more to make the soccer team than the honor roll.) I am so jealous of all of you who were able to identify and individualize things for your children at a young age.

Thanks for sharing, and all the best in the New Year,
