[quote=Anonymous]I think it is more common to hold boys back because boys tend to struggle more with listening, sitting still and energy. I know, not every boy, it is a generalization. And then there are the parents who hold their sons back because they think it will give them an advantage in sports.... Any way, if this is your third child you have a good idea what (s)he will need to be successful and can make a good decision. S is our first so we spoke to his pre school teachers to make sure he was ready. They thought he was and he has been doing well so far. But he is only 6 so the sample size is really, really small. I will say that a couple of the boys who were held back a year are playing sports with the other kids their age and are in Cub Scouts with the other kids their age. So they are a bit split in their activity friends and school friends. I am not sure if it is that big a deal for them but it is something that I have noticed.[/quote]
