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]

No, you silly PP. Never have the DCUM anti-redshirt posters taken the position that redshirting doesn't matter. After all, if it didn't matter, why bother being a DCUM anti-redshirt poster? The party line of the DCUM anti-redshirt posters is that all redshirted kids are dumb AND ALSO advanced (unfairly, of course). I don't understand how this is possible, but there it is.

Well they were lacking and then their parents decided to give them an age advantage to make them competitive with kids 20% younger. That's confusing to you? [/quote]

It's confusing to me that you think that school is a competition.[/quote]

Sure, to some degree. Every state test I get is weighted against their peers. They have to apply to college at the same time as these peers. I mean, if it wasn't competitive why on earth would anyone keep their child back? What does what the other students are capable of matter, since it isn't competitive? [/quote]

Clearly you see school as a competition which is why red-shirting bothers you.  Understand that there are others of us that don't see it as a competition.  [/quote]
