[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I just spoke today to an admission director for a well known catholic school in DC. She told me that being a little older is always better than being younger. My DD will be turning 6 just as her K class starts. Do what is best for your child and don’t honk about anything and anybody else. All of these parents that are against redshirting are only thinking about their kids too (that perhaps are born in May or June or they decide not not redshirt). We all try to do what is best for our kids. Don’t let people on an anonymous board guilt you into doing otherwise because it suits THEIR children’s needs.[/quote]

Or, you know, we are just following the guidelines. [/quote]

So are the people who redshirt. Please tell me that you are honestly not thinking of your own child when you try to convince OP to not redshirt... convince me[/quote]

I’m following “there has to be a cut off so listen to it unless you have a good reason and ‘my kid is not ready in my opinion’ isn’t a reason”

My kid turns 5 the day before the cut off so I’m practicing what I preach. [/quote]

So you ARE thinking of your young child when you criticize people who redshirt. If you are happy with your child being the youngest, why do you care if I want my Dd to be the oldest?[/quote]
