Absolutely, I mean, I should clarify my post. I still give tests (of course, sometimes you have to) ... just saying from time to time I change up how they are done. This crusade these parents are on seems like nothing but a combination of a power trip and a mislead attempt to make their child's lives better - but did they REALLY think it through - and the problems it might cause them in their adult lives?
