What sort of preschool are they LOOKING at? The one I worked at, your kids didn't have to be potty trained, and when the parent started teaching, we'd HELP (which led to many interesting and gross moments, but.... working with toddlers leads to those.)
Or one with extremely unrealistic expectations. Hell, we had kids as old as four and five still trying to master it, and we never said they couldn't show up.
Yup - my sister is a reception teacher (sort of an entry year into education, probably kindergarten equivalent) and gets children that aren't potty trained... I'd say that is abnormal at 4/5 though (I'd assume not the disaster Kristy thinks it is, mind).
Excellent snark! I realize for the sake of plot she can't go right to her parents about her suspicions, but I feel like Claudia is increasingly crossing lines...both poking into her parent's business, other people's business and quite possibly putting herself in danger.
And wow..Elizabeth or Nanny really doesn't sit down with EM to teach her her colors and shapes and stuff? I realize my Mom was a SAHM, but she spent several hours a day doing things like that, watching educational programs, etc.

Oh Claudia. You ridiculous, poor thing.

My guess is they all remember the 'coolest, most exotic' baby in there care. You know the one? The one with the tie-dye diaper and high top bootsies.

I can so see Claudia coloring on her diapers because they were just too plain.
