[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a child has a true LD such as dyslexia, they need services whether or not they are held back. [/quote] Also, holding back creates social stresses that better be outweighed by the benefits. Think twice. [/quote] Do you have an SN kid? Research doesn't support this. http://www.ldonline.org/article/Social_and_Emotional_Problems_Related_to_Dyslexia OP, lots of people hold disdain for red shirting. "Red shirting" for an SN kid is completely different than redshirting an NT kid b/c you're trying to gain an advantage. SN kids are already at the disadvantage. Time doesn't always let them catch up but building and reinforcing social skills is key. Even if that means delaying K. [/quote]
