[quote=Anonymous]You definitely have plenty of time to make this decision! We have a child whose birthday was right before the cutoff (9/30 in this area). He was our 3rd and I sent him to 2 day/week preschool the year he was eligible, so he was the youngest in the class. It totally showed. Temperment-wise, we knew we'd hold him back, it was just a question of when. For me, it was going to depend on which preschool teacher we liked. We happened to move to a 9/1 cutoff state the next year and ended up holding him back at 2! He didn't know the difference and it was completely right for him. See how she does in school. It is easy to explain holding back in preschool - they're just in a different class this year! Then they make new friends and they're fine.[/quote]
