[quote=Anonymous]I think what a lot of parents and teachers are getting at is that some kids are more mature than others - and it's pretty clear as early as 4-5 years old. My son is an early May birthday and he's smart. He can do the work of kids a year older, for the most part. What drove our decision on kindergarten vs. pk was that he has always been socially more comfortable with the older kids in his class rather than the younger kids. We discussed with his teacher who said that he was socially mature and so even though he will always be one of the youngest and smallest in his class, he's able to get right in it with the older kids and that will work best for him. Go with what the teacher says - they have a huge sample size to go from![/quote]
