[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a relative who held their [b]summer birthday boy back so now he is a 7 yr old in Kindergarten[/b]. Yeah, he is a "leader" and lords over the other 5 yr olds. Can read, do math... he should be in 2nd grade! The teachers and principal at his preschool when he was 3 had wanted him evaluated for social issues but instead of doing that they kept him in preK for 3 yrs so he can mature out of his issues so now they have a older child with relatively poor social skills for his age. I feel bad for him and wonder what it's going to be like when he is a 13 yr old in 6th grade.[/quote] This makes no sense unless he was held back twice. If he has a summer birthday and was held back once, he'd have turned six last summer and be only a bit older than most (like, less than 6 months).[/quote]
