[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If I see an older child in a grade, I assume some kind of developmental delay or disability - that there was a reason why this family felt that for the next twelve years their child would be behind their same age peers and unable to catch up as most kids do with normal childhood maturity / development. [/quote] If a child was red-shirted, that was their parents' fault, not theirs. How is it fair to judge a child for something that they had no control over? I completely disagree with red-shirting, but I was red-shirted because the decision of what I started school rested completely with my parents. I don't appreciate being labeled for something that wasn't my choice. Had it been up to me, I would have started school on time.[/quote]
