[quote=Anonymous]I had to check twice to make sure this wasn't my thread! I started a very similar one awhile back: http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/339581.page#4225521 In our case, I was one of the oldest and coasted through school. I always did great and was definitely "a leader" but never got used to working very hard, and I think that's to my detriment now. Socially, I was fine, although often fit in better with older kids. My husband was on the younger side (but not one of the youngest), excelled academically and was just fine socially despite being a pretty shy kid. Our son has a late August birthday and we're sending him on time in MoCo. We are also a little concerned about the middle school years, but we're confident he'll handle kindergarten well so we're making the decision based on where he is now rather than some hypothetical future scenario. If I didn't feel like he was so ready for school now, I might be more inclined to hold him.[/quote]
