[quote=Anonymous][quote]my child has a July birthday and I cannot afford private so he will be starting K right after he turns 5 [/quote] It's true that for the most part, red shirting is only for those that have financial resources. Same for starting kids early, which requires even more money because you have to pay for two years of it whereas red shirting only requires one. When it comes down to money, face it, if that family has more than yours does, red shirting is just the tip of the benefits that kid will get that your kid might not. Every parent has to do the best that they can for their child with the resources they have. You can't get hung up what others are giving to their kids that you can't because you lack the resources. If you want your kid to have more, then you have to figure out how to get more money. [/quote]
