[quote=Anonymous]No, I would not hold him back for this. I have a friend who did this back in kindergarten. The girl had a September birthday so instead of being the youngest, she is the oldest. Mom thought she was shy and sensitive. Plus she is short. Girl is very advanced. Now she is in 5th grade, the older in her grade and still the shortest in her grade, shy and sensitive. She is bored in AAP. Her mom blames her social problems on her daughter being so smart and advanced. It is pretty annoying to hear 5 years later. The mom constantly says other kids in her class and grade are dumb, says the teachers and parents are dumb. The girl is not well liked so holding her back did nothing for her.[/quote]
