[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me start by saying I have no dog in this fight – I have two kids with April and November birthdays. I just genuinely don't get this redshirting fad (yes, it seems like a fad to me). Why aren't the rules the rules? Why isn't the deadline hard and fast? Someone will be the oldest and youngest - my older kid is the smallest, though not the youngest, in his class - do what? The teachers know how to deal with it, and it's part of school life. I really don't see why this is even allowed.[/quote] It is not a fad it has been around since my parents were children in the 1930's and probably before that. Not all children are ready for kindergarten at the same chronological age. Some need more time to mature before they start school.[/quote]
