[quote=Anonymous]Another way to think of this is to ask what would happen if everyone with a similar child redshirted. If everyone who had a chid showing signs of developmental delays, maybe learning disorders, autism, etc, redshirted their kids, it would benefit both these kids and the other kids in class. Going a child more time to be ready for K is great for everyone and leads to a better experience all around. Meanwhile, if everyone with a boy born in July or August redshirted, you'd just wind up with a bunch of parents of boys with May and June birthdays who are upset that their kids are the smallest and youngest. Redshirting summer birthdays as a matter of course makes no sense because someone has to be the youngest. From a policy perspective, enabling this kind of redshirting serves no purpose and likely causes as many problems as it solves.[/quote]
