If you have trouble reading the above photo:

A family friend recently had a baby at around 37 years old. The baby is 6 months old now and I heard that she has enrolled him in a preschool that is a lot more expensive than daycare. The father is maybe 45 years old. Apparently this school has a structured curriculum and every kid who went there is now bilingual. They want the baby to warm up to other people and kids, as he is just at home with his parents right now. There is one teacher per 2 babies, and no parents are allowed inside. They do activities like finger painting. We saw a photo of the baby playing in a pot with dry pasta sticks and some dried beans. The teachers wear masks with visors, the babies aren't masked.
For one thing, beans can get stuck up kids' noses, there I go being judgemental. I told the mom she should speak to the teachers but she trusts them and won't interfere. Another thought - 'is it the best time for preschool, aren't schools generally closed at this time?
The trend seems to be that older, more established parents can afford more and want the best for their babies. Let's hope they have not gone overboard. What do you think?
