[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son has a September bday; we did not redshirt. He is the top band as a freshman. [/quote] Ours was too. It has nothing to do with age, but talent and practice.[/quote] There are absolutely skills tied to development, including abstract reasoning, attention span and coordination. Being a year older does matter for nearly everything.[/quote] No, if your child is talented, they will be fine. Start them early with private lessons and private orchestra/music groups. That is what makes a difference. With math, some of it is how their brain functions. If they are not math kids, they will struggle either way. If they are and ready, you let them do it.[/quote]
