[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This always makes me secretly glad for my middle of the pack January month kid. [/quote] Yeah, uh, that kid will be one of the oldest.[/quote] No, I think middle?? Yes I have an summer young one who I sent on time and I hated hearing that red shirted kids would be over a year older. With my Jan bday kid I have less of a reaction hearing about redshirted kids bc it's only 6 months older. Re: sports, it's interesting. I read the chapter about this in one of Malcolm Gladwell's books. But at the same time, I see that the kids who are REALLY good are better than kids multiple years older than them. [/quote] I agree with the sports. You either have the gift for exceptional athleticism or you don't. That's why you hear about pros that didn't start their sport until tweets or high school [/quote]
