should I redshirt DD

But academicwise she is outsmart most of her peers, and so far i am not seeing any social problem from her - most of time she is the leader of her group. yes, the kids listen to her and follow her.

I am concerned that she will get bullied and be less confident if she is much smaller than her peers when growing. she has petite genes. so should I hold her back?

Are you going to hold her back each year that she’s smaller than her peers?
