Poor kid. No really:

From the Daily News:

A Manhattan mom is suing a $19,000-a-year preschool, claiming it jeopardized her daughter’s chances of getting into an elite private school because she had to slum with younger kids.

Nicole Imprescia yanked 4-year-old Lucia from the York Avenue Preschool last fall, angry the tyke was stuck learning about shapes and colors with tots half her age - when she should have been prepping for a standardized test.

“This is about a theft where a business advertises as one thing and is actually another,” said Mathew Paulose, a lawyer for the mom.

“They’re nabbing $19,000 and making a run for it.”

Impressed by the school’s pledge to ready its young students for the ERB - a test used for admission at top private elementary schools - Imprescia enrolled her daughter at York in 2009.
