[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it only a problem when a tall child gets redshirted instead of a short child?[/quote] It's more noticeable in the earlier years when a tall child is redshirted. However, by the end of K, regardless of height, the redshirted child will start noticing that other kids his/her age are going into second grade the next year while he/she will be going into first grade. I think over the long run the child knowing he/she is a year behind is a bigger deal than how tall the child is. [/quote]
