I think I feel bad because it seems like all the other kids in his class know all this stuff, and the teacher made it like he is so far behind. It never occurred to me that he needed to be able to write when he just turned 4 in July.
I feel much better now! I thought my child was so far behind. My main fear was that he would be so far behind all of the other kids in school, and that would make him dislike school. I sent him to preschool more for the interaction with the other kids because he doesn't get much of that on a normal basis, not so much for the educational part. He knows colors and numbers, just not writing. I think maybe what I should do is contact the school district and get the actual list of requirements for kindergarten.

Please tell me you're being self-deprecating and not honestly thinking that mothers who don't teach their 4 year olds to write are bad moms.
