When I worked as a TA one of my coworkers refused to teach KS1. Said they were feral. I spent a week teaching 7 year olds and could definitely appreciate her stance.
My kid is five. Well behaved, very into learning, constantly blows my mind with what he can read.
Some of his classmates eat sand and have a spoken vocabulary smaller than what my kid is reading. His school is pretty good so I just have to assume the sand eaters get no additional parental education or discipline at home.
