[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is in kindergarten now. He's one of the youngest children in his class, with an early April birthday. We've been to several birthday parties this month for[b] boys in his class who are turning seven[/b]. My son is more immature than a number of his classmates and struggles with his fine motor skills. However, he's doing great in almost all his academic areas and keeps up quite nicely with the kids a full year older than him. I think my son would have been bored out of his mind if we'd kept him in pre-k another year, and I could see that leading to behavior problems. I really think it's depends on the child. Most of the kids in my son's school who were held back a year were held back starting PK-3 or between PK-3 and PK-4. [/quote] In the Kindergarten? And they are not even summer boys? Where is the end of it? Should I have hold back my March boy then?[/quote]
