[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, many lawyers and CEO's like my husband who frankly don't know a thing about appropriate development for a 5 year old. That's why this is a bizarre choice to leave up to parents. As the numbers show, either rich kids are slower, or this practice has a perceived advantage. If it didn't you'd see the redshirting option applied equally across the board. Look, its not a big deal to admit that you want advantages for your child or that you have fears or worries about their potential. [/quote] This again!!! Of course I was worried they wouldn’t succeed as the youngest!!! That’s why I did it. What is wrong with you?[/quote] Nothing. Some think that taking an advantage that others can't take is cheating. I don't care what you call it but you seem totally perplexed why seeking an advantage by holding your child back is viewed as cheating. [/quote] This isn’t it. I’m more shocked and your inability to see that sometimes we need to make different choices for our kids. I get that am lucky that I can afford to do it, and of course I get that my kid is better off because of it. [/quote]
