[quote=Anonymous]I really appreciate all the examples on both sides that people have given AND how it affected the child later down the road. I'm struggling with the decision for my DD, who has a July birthday, is shy, and has mild ADD. Reading is going well but she struggles with working memory and processing speed, which together presents the most problems for math skills. I have no doubt another year of Kindergarten would help her in the short term but am struggling with if it is truly necessary. I think we can address many challenges with tutors and I worry that holding her back will have a negative impact on her self esteem and I would have regrets many years down the road. I know there is no right or wrong answer and everyone's situation is unique to their family. [/quote]
