[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree- I meet moms whose son excels at a sport say soccer and I'll say- wow, that's impressive for a Kindergartener and the mom will reply- oh, thanks (and a version of modesty add:) - but he's really more like a 1st grader since he's almost 7. Looking at a K, 1 , 2 class etc. is strange- there are some huge kids and short kids. For what I have observed, the really older kids in the class that were redshirted have the worst behavior (so there goes that theory that one year helped prepared them more)- in fact, the older bigger kids tend to be bullies.[/quote] Are you a teacher? How many classes have you observed? The most disruptive child in DD's class last year was the youngest, and he definitely could have used another year. Are the kids with October birthdays usually the bullies?[/quote]
