Preschools

What about preschools that are terribly academic, I think we are pushing younger and younger kids to know more. They are expected before kindgerarten to read and write, which is unreasonable. The pressure on kids is huge. School can't do it all, teachers can't do it all.

If kids are pushed to hard, maybe you will harm the child. A child pushed to read to early may never enjoy reading because it is forced on them.

Instead we need to realize that preschools play a vital role--such as social and live lessons ---ex. sharing, preparation for school ---ex. routine and schedule of school.

Preschools need to step down.

Parents and educators need to realize they are still kids, who want to play, explore, and get to know themselves.
