[quote=Anonymous]Why is it so hard to understand that it is up to the parent to decide what is best for their kid? Let's put it another way: If the school was telling you: Your kid is fat and needs to lose weight. Your kid is not a good runner-they need to get lessons to learn how to run Your kid is ugly-get a hairuct You all are so willing to make government tell people what to do when it comes to starting school yet I bet all of you would scream bloody murder if the school did the above. And where is the evidence that the 7 year olds are the leaders int he classroom. Why not let parents decide what is best for their child whatever the reason. Stop worrying about other people;s kids so much and just worry about your own. (and before anybody says that they are by not having a 7 year old in the classroom, direct evidence not hearsay) Also, a K who is starting a year later would be 6, not 7. They would turn 7 in the school year, just as your 5 year old will turn 6.[/quote]
