[quote=Anonymous]Haven't read all of the comments, but, would redshirt if you are thinking about it. We didn't for our mid-July son and wish that we had. In his favor is that he is a typical oldest child of the family and naturally has a good disposition and follows rules well. But, the maturity and academics have been a struggle for him. We opted to redshirt our daughter with an end of August birthday. Yes, it sucked to pay for another year of care, but, she is super well prepared and was very comfortable starting kindergarten. Our hope is that being older and more mature will lend itself towards leadership vs. following the crowd, because she definitely has the younger child wild personality. [/quote]
