[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you be willing to redshirt your sixth grader? Pros and cons please [/quote] No. My child is not behind or struggling academically. Neither she nor we as her parents have expectations of huge sports achievements (also, the pay-off for redshirting for sports isn't as clear for girls as it is for boys). She manages socially ok. She would hate to be redshirted. A family friend did redshirt his 6th grader. He was struggling a bit academically and the child and parents had big hopes for college athletics. He has always had excellent social skills so that wasn't an issue. The child agreed with redshirting, along with a change in schools, in pursuit of his athletic dreams.[/quote]
