[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] You are doing your child a real service by allowing her to be her age and attend school with age peers. Good for your school for giving her reading and math opportunities. So many parents make the mistake of pushing their children ahead without understanding the costs. Smart 5 year olds are still 5. And there are lots of smart 5 year olds. Good luck to you and your daughter. You're already making wise choices for her.[/quote] It's always good to know what you're talking about before posting: https://www.nagc.org/resources-publications/gifted-education-practices/acceleration Lots of research shows that, for the right kids in the right scenarios, acceleration is a great thing. It sounds like that poster is in a great situation and has no need to change anything, but that doesn't mean that moving kids up is always, or even often, a mistake.[/quote]
