Without exposure, how can the child make an intelligent choice. If I hadn't been forced to take math (which I hated), I would never have been able to be exposed to calculus (which I loved, and forever changed my opinion of math).

If I am misunderstanding you, tell me what the elementary grades would be like for a child who loved to read books (excelled at it, even), hated English class, hated math, enjoyed art, hated social studies, hated music, hated gym, and loved science (esp. Dinosaurs and geology). What course of studies would you advocate for this child (based on me)?

I'd like to understand.
