[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s a kid in DD class whose birthday is just days before the cutoff. They didn’t start K until she was 6, almost 7. They are now in 2nd grade and I’m honestly so tired of this mom and her bragging about her “advanced” 9yo second grader. She’s so great at sports, she’s reading above third-grade level (probably because she should BE a third grader, or older!) I’m not so sure she’s advanced as much as she’s just older. Thoughts? Do I just ignore this woman or should something politely be said? [/quote] I know someone like this. Child was redshirted with an early June (like June 2) birthday. For K she was like “I just hope it’s advanced enough.” It took everything in me not to say “maybe if you hadn’t redshirted how advanced K is wouldn’t be a concern.” But I held it in. Soon enough these kids will realize it’s awkward to be a year older than everyone in their class, and it’s not their fault. It’s the parents, but it’s annoying. [/quote]
