Theodore is only 4.
he is also SN and "behind" .. immature and senstitive
I fully understand the joy and the need for him to have unrushed play, i know there is no need to push acidemics now -- or for a few years yet. THAT is a big part of why we want to home school anyway -- i don't like the rush to acidemic and the stress i see in public school in kindergarden and in pre-schools where we know kids.
i understand that ...i really do.
but
I find myself (internally, personally) anxious ... i want to jump into all the cool stuff i find, i want to see him read, i want to _______. it is all me, i know that.
then
add to that we have one family we are dear with that homeschool, and the peer to Theo in that family is #7 and a girl, and at 6 months older is much more advanced.
then
add to that that all the other peers he encounters (church, the children of DH's co-workers) are all in pre-school, even the ones a year younger than him.
I find it hard to rein myself in, and espcially not to worry ...
