[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Diagnosed global developmental delays, pediatrician recommended. Turned out DS was horribly bored and jumped back to his age level afterward. Lesson: development is not linear!!! [/quote] My brother was redshirted before redshirting was a thing. He was socially immature and the school recommended it. He's very bright, ended up being bored and had issues with underachievement as a result (tested perfectly but never wanted to do the homework). The issues weren't only as a result of redshirting of course, but it contributed to a bad start. I feel social immaturity tends to be looked at as one of the "good" reasons for redshirting, but it's not always appropriate either. Definitely depends on the kid.[/quote]
