[quote=Anonymous]Does anyone else see the irony of the above exchange being in a thread about maturity/when to start kindergarten? Our kindergartner actually had a little tiff with his friend recently about who's dad was stronger. It was cute - but only because they are in kindergarten. In any event - OP, our DS has a late Sept birthday. He was fine academically and had no behavior issues, so school said he should start K on time. However, we decided to hold him back. He just did not have the maturity to follow directions and actively participate in class. Also, fine motor skills needed time to develop. Turned out this was a good decision, and his K peers seem to be his true, age-appropriate peers. (DS seems less mature than the first graders in the school.) These are things you may wish to consider as you make your decision. [/quote]
