[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one complains about the slow child who's held back and has a summer birthday. A spring birthday I can see as being a bit odd but after a while no one cares. I don't think the child on meds would have any more friends though if they started earlier.[/quote] Anything beyond late August/September without a documented problem is crazy to me. I think when a kid is 5 by the first day of school they should be mandated to enroll unless they have proper medical documentation. No enrolling should be a delinquency. Lets get K back to what K is supposed to be. Having kids turn 7 during the academic k school year in public is ridiculous.[/quote] Delinquency. Wow. By the way, I suspect that these parents demanding that any child held back must have a specific diagnosis are the same parents who think clinicians are overdiagnosing children.[/quote]
