This is the second time I have experienced another mum testing their own child against mine. Simple questions on how to spell words and add numbers etc.. Their child knows the answers to the questions ( like they have been rehersing ) my child is stumbling with the answers which of course shows their child to be the more intelligent. I feel really annoyed that they feel this need to be so competitive. I'm all for children learning, but I wouldn't try to embarress another friends child.
