He is coming from a private/homeschool/classical/Christian education and he is a bit bored, but loves his friends.

She just doesn't sound like preschool material.<BR/><BR/>At the same time, the mix makes perfect sense; good one-on-one time but also the opportunity to try his hand at school.

Without imagination we wouldn't have electricity, or computers, or indoor plumbing, or Barney . . . uh, wait, bad example. Anyway. The Queen has an entire entourage numbering between 2 and 10 real people (like Grandma) and characters (like Joe and Steve from Blue's Clues, but never Blue for some reason). They follow her everywhere and have grand adventures. I would hate to see that squashed down.<BR/>And yeah, the book rule is completely idiotic.
