[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on the special needs. What does he have? And can I ask how smart he is? I know it’s hard to tell at 4. There’s a boy in our neighborhood who was redshirted for maturity and is also very smart. The parents were constantly pushing for better differentiation for their son, but I assume he could have done fine in the grade above. In late elementary now we see zero behavior issues in this boy, so he either grew out of it or it’s something we don’t know about, which I completely admit is possible. I do know that he’s been miserable in school for years and parents have been mad that the school hasn’t met his needs, but I don’t understand why they didn’t just skip him ahead to his proper grade in school if he was miserable.[/quote]
