[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually think having a child go off to college at 19 is a benefit not a negative.[/quote]

It's gross to have an adult man in high school with 13 year olds. [/quote]

There will always be some adult men in high school even without redshirting - not everyone stays 17 senior year.[/quote]

Turning 18 second semester is WAY different than being 19, and you know it.[/quote]

Kids are turning 18 as early as September. Why do people keep posting this BS about kids not being 18 unless they are redshirted? Read the thread and stop puking up the same incorrect talking points.[/quote]

If it happens, it's because parents are inappropriately holding them back. None of my friends turned 18 until at least April of senior year.[/quote]

You are...not good at math. The cut off is September so therefore any kids born between September-December will be turning 18 fall semester of senior year of high school. They are not held back/redshirted. They are sent on time and their birthday falls after the cut off but in the first semester of the school year. All your point proves is that you had friends whose birthdays happened to be in spring-summer instead of fall-winter.[/quote]

Probably the same poster who kept insisting OP’s child was already five.   :roll: [/quote]
