[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, I can't think of any advantages a child would lose because of one year. I think the point is to help younger children. Once they become teenagers and older adults, one year is much less significant. [/quote] Once they become teenagers, the academic difference is less significant. But when they're teenagers, the social and physical differences will become much more pronounced on both sides of the spectrum. There is still stigma associated with being "held back." There are enough physical differences in a class where kids are all the same age +/- 11 months. [/quote]
