Uhhhhh… excuse me while I vomit. You’re not letting your child take a class that will challenge and probably interest her, based on the microscopic chance that in 6 years she might get a bad grade in one math class and she might score well on her PSAT and she might need good grades to qualify for NMF. Why not encourage her to enjoy learning so that she gets good grades and enjoys getting good grades? I hope you realize that challenging classes are a huge part of being prepared for the PSAT when it comes around… In 6 years, your daughter may have been inadequately prepared or have become so apathetic due to lack of rigor in school that she doesn’t score high enough for NMSF anyway. Wow. Just wow.</p>
