[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another October parent here -- love that DC is one of the oldest in the class. And watching the development of the kids in the class above over the years ... so correct to keep my kid on time instead of pushing ahead, though we were tempted.[/quote] Think long term, particularly middle school (6th & 7th specifically), dating/driving age, and sending her off to college. It is not just about preK-early elementary. Some of the kids start to mature very quickly around 5th and 6th grade, particularly if the class is older. Speaking from experience. It can be very difficult for the kid who is still emotionally and physically a kid when all her friends suddenly start acting like teens.[/quote]
