[quote=Anonymous]I have 2 friends who have sons who skipped grades (currently in college). Both friends regret the decision. Although their sons where more than capable of above grade work and could have skipped more than one grade, the social implications were devastating for their sons. In retrospect they (and their sons) think it was a bad idea. We had the opportunity to advance our son at K and decided not to because he was socially immature. He is bored at school and we have had to find outside interests to challenge him, but he could not function well socially then (or now, for that matter) with an older group of kids. [/quote]
