[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think you nailed it when you said you wanted him to fit in. In school, there's nothing more important than blending in with your classmates. You don't want to do something to your child will cause them stand out, and since the vast majority of summer kids are 5 their entire Kindergarten year and 17 their entire senior year of high school, being 6 your entire Kindergarten year and 18 your entire senior year of high school is a recipe for awkwardness. There's nothing more important than making sure your child is in the majority, and the vast majority of students go on time.[/quote]

My daughter's best friend has an October birthday, cut off is Sept. 30th. She's almost a year older than some kids in her class. no one seems to notice.[/quote]

She's still in the grade that she's supposed to be in. She's simply on the older end. Someone has to be the oldest. The age-range for kids in her grade is October 1st of the year she was born to September 30th of the year, and she falls into that range. Nothing wrong with where she is.[/quote]
