seriously?
what is the point of a nursery parents' evening?
- plays well in the sandpit
- stacks bricks together competently
- only shits in her own nappy

They feel the need to somehow justify the two grand a term they are charging him
He reciprocates by concluding that it is money well spent when they tell him she's doing well.

£2k a term is fine if you can afford it, it's central london and you know they are somewhere safe and comfortable
but you can go too far with the garbage. teaching a 2 year old confidence? pfffft. the truth is, "our rent and staff cost a fortune and we're here to make a profit, but your kid will be in good hands".

It's not so much that they are teaching confidence, they're observing things like that, they are teaching other things though, such as the alphabet, that sharing things with other kids is important etc.

all nurseries do that, and in fact only cunt parents don't do that
you're paying for the name and the location. which is fine, christ i'd do exactly the same if i had a kid, but they really shouldn't peddle it as something it's not.

your ex needs a stint without daddy or her ex's money

she'd be taking micro to the state nursery (which she herself hasn't paid any taxes towards)
she needs a dose of reality

Her chess isn't quite as good as I'd like it to be, but her Mandarin writing is coming on very well and she's better than Tarquin and Atticus at applied physics.
