[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So your kid will turn 7 in kindergarten? Yeah I wouldn't celebrate his 7th birthday with his kinder friends. My son who just finished 2nd grade is still 7.[/quote]

I agree. That is insane. My child will celebrate their 5th birthday in kindergarten. The fact that your 7 year old may be in class with my 5 year old is ridiculous. [/quote]

My child will turn 7 in second grade, too. You have not done the right thing by him or his classmates, and you know it - hence your extreme self-consciousness, embarrassment about birthday parties, and longwinded, overexplaining posts. You want just want your athletic, academic ready kid to get a TWO YEAR LEG UP on the other kids - not because he needs it, but because you're extra ambitious for him. Go pray on that. [b]I don't think Jesus would approve of abusing the loopholes like this.[/b][/quote]

:lol:

p.s. Check your math!

You're faking a confidence you don't feel, OP - your long and defensive posts tell all. Redshirting a child as old as yours was a shady move, as you well know. He's going to be bored, and yes, the other parents (and teachers) will think less of you for such a late redshirting.

:lol:

Other PPs have also made good points about athletic ineligibility, age adjustments on testing, and the risk of statutory charges for your son in h.s. He'll have you to thank. Wow.[/quote]
