[quote=Anonymous]No, and not for that ridiculous sports reason. At that age, it's very common for children to be advanced by several grades. They can do the work intellectually, but are rarely as emotionally and socially advanced, which leads to problems in middle and high school, with puberty and the switch to more grown-up pursuits. I skipped a grade, and was socially out of sync in high school. What you can do is supplement and enrich now, and look for magnet schools. This is what I did for my kids. [/quote]
