[quote=Anonymous]I held back my September birthday 5th grade twins and have never regretted it. In a grade cohort of about 125 kids, they're about the 10th/11th oldest. They're academic, social and athletic leaders. I can't imagine the same would be true if they were among the 10 youngest kids in the grade. September birthdays really are tricky. You're dealing with being the very oldest or very youngest. We chose oldest as the lesser or two evils and it's been a good decision. [/quote]
