[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would not do this. Your child would be 1.5 years older than other students starting college or if you switch to public. Super awkward.[/quote] I agree that OP shouldn’t do it but your math is misleading. If red-shirted he’d only be 1.5 years older than September kids who go on time, not than most students in his grade. He’d be 6-9 months older than fall bday kids, 9-12 months older than winter bday kids, 12-15 months older than spring bday kids, and 15-18 months older than summer bday kids. It’s a bad idea to redshirt him unless he has developmental delays or other issues which will make school very challenging for him which it doesn’t sound like he does.[/quote]
