[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the pps that answered so genuinely. He is a late August birthday, so even though he is a bright kid, we thought purely for social purposes of having him repeat kindergarten in public school to help boost his self-confidence and social maturity. He is also very small, in addition, to being shy and sensitive so stature won't be an issue. He actually always seems to be well-liked by the other kids and makes friends so he has this going for him. My back-up plan is to use the private school that he has enjoyed if public school is a bust. I want to find the balance between allowing him the hard knocks that life brings you and working through it but without killing his spirit in the process. I really adore the private school he is at....we pretty much break even after putting money away for retirement and paying for our daughter's daycare....which is why I'd like to send him to public.[/quote]
