[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t. He’a gotten to 8th grade without issues. If he’s not struggling academically, and if it’s primarily for his sport, I wouldn’t do it with my DS. The immaturity is normal for boys at that age. I have a similar story with my son born on the very last day of the cut-off. We started in him in K at 4 yrs old, and he went to college at 17. He played his sport all through high school just fine. He wasn’t particularly mature, but not overly immature either. College was fine and he graduated after four years. I’d also be concerned with classes being too easy for your DS next year. Don’t set the expectations low for your son, unless you want him to meet them.[/quote]
