[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First Rule of Good Parenting: don't skew things to your kid's advantage[/quote]

Why is giving your kid an advantage not good parenting? [/quote]

Sets a bad moral example, sets them up for unreasonable expectations, insulates them from coping with challenges or learning value/necessity of hard work, can undermine self-confidence when they eventually realize their parents thought they needed an advantage, etc. etc. etc.[/quote]

Dream on, won’t happen and you are either not a parent or lying through your teeth.[/quote]

It happens every day, all of the time, with the kids who are redshirting who are otherwise healthy and have normal brain functions.[/quote]

That is the only way some kids have advantages over other kids? Really? And aren’t redshirted kids dumb and slow? Sounds more like hamstringing than helping. If you hire tutors, feed your kids healthy foods and read to them isn’t that also cheating in your world?[/quote]
