[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS is a late August birthday (turns 5 the day before school starts!) and we are also struggling with this decision. He knows all his letters and numbers beyond 20, but struggles to come close to writing his name, sit still, pay attention, follow directions, etc. Academically I think he would do ok, but socially and maturity-speaking, it could be a disaster :-( We are really torn b/c I'm against the idea of redshirting in general, yet I don't think my child is ready. [/quote] It's only January. It sounds like he is on the right track to be ready, and he's got months to get more mature. If he's in preschool now, he will be practicing all these things. It's amazing the difference 6 months can make with little kids![/quote]
