[quote=Anonymous]Not OP, my boys are 19 months apart (one year in school) and this is a great reflection [quote]They do tend to “crowd” each other and probably lack space for quiet reflection and focus away from the other, which can have impacts on school performance — not necessarily bad, but you can sort of see how they’d be “better off” w/o the other to deal with. I get it.[/quote] We should have had them be two years apart in school, but the second one was advanced for a four year old. That's not a brag. It was totally due to learning things at the same time as his brother. So he learned to read, write, basic math and science early all because they were together. More a a Montessori style learning. It made it easier for us as parents and for our daycare & preschool to keep them together. They absolutely needed more physical, emotional and mental space to grow on their own. We did our best, learning as we went. [/quote]
