[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Much more long range outcome, but I started early with a December birthday and graduated high school with lots of friends and at the top of my class. In this area people tend to hold back, but I'd base it on who your child is and if he/she is ready. That said, raising kids now, the adage about boys being slower to mature has definitely been true in our world, so a boy I'd be more open to holding back regardless.[/quote] Had a childhood friend with an October BD and school district cut off was September 30 - we started K together. If my mom and I had a quarter for every time the mom or daughter told us how unfair it was that she was not in her "right" grade, I could've paid for all my books for at least the first few years of college. She was a very good student, but she wasn't in the top math track and did not graduate at the top ten of our class in her "wrong" grade," so I could never figure out what was the issue. [/quote]
