He's only 9. >> Mojo....this is extremely fd up. I watching on the news tonight where this young boy fainted at a spelling contest. Too much pressure for kids. They are trying to catch up to their mistakes in schooling our children. In my own opinion....I believe they should start back with the basic fundamentals.
