[quote=Anonymous]Move to Baltimore, peoples. All the independent schools here mandate redshirting, so there isn't the same amount of handwringing about "holding back" kids (lol). And the not-redshirt-eligible parents just suck it up and somehow deal with it that their kids are not the oldest in the class anymore. Our kid was recommended for the extra year (as indeed all late summer birthdays are), we took it, and no regrets. If your kid is a fragile flower who can't endure being in classroom with a kid 14 months older, then I guess find a school district that doesn't allow redshirting. As long as it's allowed, people will do it if they think it's best for their kids -- and you're terribly arrogant to demand that they do otherwise.[/quote]
