[quote=Anonymous]My son was the EXACT same way (he's 9 now & was recently diagnosed with ADHD). We red shirted him & it was the best decision we've ever made. When we were contemplating starting him on time or keeping him in preschool an additional year, they Principal said that she's never, ever had a family regret holding back their sons for a year, but plenty of families regretted starting their sons in Kindergarten before they were ready. She said to me "What's the worst thing that's going to happen? Your son will be the smartest & tallest kid in his grade next year"? :) Mine not only had the immaturity (and now we know ADHD, but he didn't show signs of it then), but mine REALLY struggled with separation anxiety away from me. Giving him that extra year made all the difference in the world.[/quote]
