Skills shmills

I am very appreciative of the marvelous job my daughter's Kindergarten teacher is doing.  Brooklyn is developing in leaps and bounds and I couldn't be happier with the way things are going.

However...there is one little thing that I should have been consulted about before it was taught to Brooklyn. 

Is there a reason that a 5 year old needs to learn to tell time??? 
I mean really, that's not necessary. 
How am I supposed to get away with putting the kids to bed early when she knows that it's early?
This could put a serious cramp in my style.

AMEN! This also includes the skill of being able to tell the difference between 5 minutes and an hour. When I tell the kids they have 5 more minutes to play, that can really mean anywhere from one minute to an hour, depending on how well they are playing.
