[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom kept me one year behind while changing schools and it worked against me in a way. In each class, in each grade, I was a year+ older than everyone else and as we grew up, kids around me made me conscious about my age. That increased as we hit teens. While everyone was taking up a full time job by by age 21, I was almost 23. Just always mad me feel "old". Academically though, I did great at school. [/quote] Op here. You must not have had a summer birthday then. If I did this, then DS wouldn’t be over a year older than his classmates. Right now he is 7, turning 8 in august, but all of the kids in his class have already turned 8 except for one or two of them. If we held him back, he would be a couple months older than the oldest kid in the class (assuming no one redshirted!) at most.[/quote]
