[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We are redshirting our late september twins (cut off is Oct 1). My husband was born the same time of year. He hated starting at four and he hated graduating at 17 and being the youngest. It was tough on him. Personally sending a 17 year old off to college really did not appeal to me. We talked to their preschool and a few other educators and figure the three days is not a huge deal. I still struggled with it. I thought that they would be the oldest in the class. Guess I am wrong. They will graduate at 18 and be slighly older.[/quote] Late Sept. is more reasonable. I have a late Oct. bday and started at 4 as well, and went to college at 17, and would much prefer to have started at 5 like most everyone else. OP is doing something very different - she'll be starting her kid at 6 - her allegedly athletically talented, academically advanced, socially skilled 6 year old. In kindergarten. Until he's 7. :roll: [/quote]
