[quote=Anonymous][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]

I thought the party line with DCUM anti-redshirt posters was that all redshirted kids were dumb and redshirting didn't matter. But here you are all worried about how it's an advantage, so much so that doing it is cheating (never mind that most school districts freely allow it).

Pick a lane. Honestly sometimes I think the DCUM anti-redshirt crowd should learn basic logic skills as they seem to be sorely lacking.[/quote]

Ha ha, this exactly.  Hard to see how the so-called giant idiots are getting any advantage if they are as slow and poorly behaved as the anti-red shifters complain.  If anything, they should be making the short geniuses shine.
