[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand redshirting. I feel like everyone I know is talking about holding their kids back a year before putting them in kindergarten. There was no redshirting where I grew up. My birthday was in the last quarter of the calendar year and I did fine in school. I was usually one of the youngest in my classes. Why is redshirting even allowed? Why would people want their kids turning 7 in kindergarten? I can understand people in OP's situation with a child who legitimately has mental health issues, but barring that, redshirting feels like over protective helicopter parents selling their kids short.
