[quote=Anonymous]We red-shirted our late August boy. He's intellectually gifted but had some social and physical delays. He's too advanced for kindergarten and is bored a lot, but he's also struggling (even now) with male friendships because he's not where the other boys are physically. He's been assessed and is not ND, but he's definitely on the quirky end of the spectrum. We'll be asking his school if he should skip 1st grade or if it will be better to keep him with his current cohort. Bored at school is bad but so is beaten up. My point is, if you do red shirt, there's nothing to say you can't advance to an age-appropriate grade level later. [/quote]
