[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tried to have a baby for 12 years. I finally had my son at age 42, after a very long, expensive journey. He’s a July baby, and I wanted the extra year with him. He will graduate at age 18, go to college at 19. [/quote] A kid with a July birthday is pretty close to the middle. In fact, someone born on July 1st would be on the older half, as July 2nd is the middle day of a non-leap-year and the first day on the later half of a leap-year. Someone born after July 2nd would be slightly on the younger half, but nowhere near the youngest. Even if he was born on July 31st, he would've been older than roughly 42 percent of his classmates. I can understanding redshirting someone born between October and December, but redshirting someone who's roughly in the middle just seems a bit greedy.[/quote]
