[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was on the older side. My mother purposefully delayed my entry to school because she had been on the younger side and hated it. I hated it. No, it did not give me leadership skills. Yes, I physically matured before the other girls and it was awful. I did not like always being the oldest and found school boring and was not given enough challenges and opportunities to fail and build resilience. I would not purposefully do the same to my children, although they just missed the cutoff date so I don't really have a choice.[/quote] I was also the oldest and blame my mother for it. I did not like it It was hard being in school a year longer. My kids both have summer, spring birthdays so it was not an isst. My mom is controlling so I did not develop any leadership skills[/quote]
