[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have not read the whole thread, but I think it's pretty shortsighted that you are just worried about the other parents asking YOU. The kids all know the others' ages by first grade. My child even refers to one redshirter as "the 8 year old." Your kid and all his friends will know he was held back, and in case you hadn't realized, he will likely be on sports teams with kids in the grade above him, not with his friends. So over all this business. [/quote] This is just funny to me. I was held back in the 70s and the kids did not know it (I didn't even really know it). No one even mentioned it until I got my learner's permit before everyone and they thought that was cool. I just don't think the kids focus on it as much as the parents. [/quote]
