    SM - as Sami said - if the work is too easy, and she gets bored they surely she'll be even less focused? :confused:
    Liv was moved down a group a couple of years ago. She's always been really good at maths and was always in the top group - but for some reason she had a confidence crisis! So although she knew the answers, she dithered about, worrying it was wrong for so long she didn't get all of the work finished! A couple of terms in the lower group did her good, the work was a bit too easy, but she got her confidence back iykwim!

    Susan - If you don't mind me asking, what are the other objections to the MMR? I don't want to start a debate/worry anyone - but i'm interested. (Actually - i'll pm you). ;)


    I don't get the delivery charge on the AS site? Am I right in thinking its free if you order over £50, but £10 if you order less? (Or am I being daft?). :rolleyes:
    :beer:
  • It is only £10 for next day, depends on postcode for 1st class under £35

    ah so thats better :) I wouldn't worry, some kids are like that she'll be fine. Does she have omega suppliments and breakfast everyday - studies show its a winning formula for attention span in kids

    I was gonna suggest this, has really made a huge difference with Ben, he has 2 a day! :D
    Too many children, too little time!!!

    you've just described me at Zoe's age - I turned out fine :D

    3 - I think Susan's objection is linked to the rubella vaccine being made from cells from an aborted fetus http://www.mmrthefacts.nhs.uk/questions/question.php?id=83
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
