R2I Kids Transition..

I agree with post 36 Just because your child didn't tell you doesn't mean he/she is very happy with the environment. This is a growing concern as you may see (both in US and India but in India it is not so recognized yet). Most kids would adapt overtime as long as they can make good friends. Some ...

No talking out of turn,take turns in the playground, sharing, no pushing/pinching,talking in "indoor" voice are not part of indian curriculum.so you may still ...
