[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Many or maybe most kindergarten students from affluent families find school very easy and are not challenged, whether or not they were held back. Come back and talk to me when they are in middle and high school. A young-for-his-grade boy is highly likely to struggle, which creates a host of other issues in addition to the academic ones.[/quote] How do you define "young for his grade"? The youngest 25%? The youngest 10%? By definition, 25%/10%/whatever% of boys are going to be young for their grade. (Girls, too.)[/quote] Meeting the cutoff by three days is young for his grade.[/quote] OK, so let's move all boys within 3 days before the cut-off to the next year. Then what happens? Then it's the boys who are within 3 days of 3 days before the cut-off who are young for their grade.[/quote]
