The two stupid things about preschool.

No, neither stupid thing is the cost, which -- at least for the park-district-run preschools around here -- is relatively fair. On the other hand, having to register your child in November 2007 for a preschool starting in September 2008 is stupid, particularly since some of the preschools require the children to be potty-trained and how am I supposed to know if my child is going to be potty-trained 10 months in the future, huh? It is also stupid that if your child is born September 2nd, it is required that they go to a younger preschool than a child born September 1st, even though the September 2nd child may be socially and intellectually more advanced than the September 1st child and both could benefit by swapping the two.

Also, this is what Benji will learn in preschool next year: "colors, shapes, [and] counting numbers 1-5." Yes, because it's that dang number 4 that trips him up on his way counting to 50.
