What would you think of a mother that didn't let their child start school until 9 years old?

And the child is the one that told her that they wanted to go to school. But the child was too far behind so they had to put them in a special class for disabled children.

I'd say that mother is a piece of shit who wasn't doing her kid any favors.

I'd think the mother was messed up

I'd say she's a bit crazy and that the kid is going to be either a maverick or a loser, depends on his or her natural intelligence.

@CrazyMusicLover Well, the kid is now a nurse, specifically a nurse practitioner with a 6 figure income. Also Owns properties that they went own. Also donates to charities.

@Thekeeper So it seems there's not a problem in the end.

Thekeeper

@CrazyMusicLover that's right, but it was a long hard road for her, very long and hard, with a mother that only made things harder for her, but she was quite resilient.

My dad never let us go to school at all.. I dont know her reasoning so idk what to say.. but maybe the kid resents it

I would say that is incredibly bad parenting.

I’d want to know why. Were they homeschooling the child, at least ? Otherwise it’s pretty irresponsible and selfish. Further proof that not everyone needs to have children.

Thekeeper

@bijouxbroussard No, not homeschooling either. When asked why, all she could say was that was not the reason for the child being in a special class. But, this child went on to become a nurse. So, I know it was because the child was not being educated or thought anything early in life.

@MarmeeMarch True. All kidding aside, not everyone is cut out for STEM.
