[quote=Anonymous]My DS is a May birthday (on the younger side in his class but not so young we considered redshirting) and currently a freshman in HS. No academic issues or problems in elementary. As a few others have noted, puberty can be a bit of an X factor. My DS has been very late to puberty and middle school was quite rough socially. He is just hitting puberty now. Now- my DS would’ve been a late bloomer either way, middle school is rough for many, and that stage is but a blip on the radar in the grand scheme. All true. However, his self esteem and social confidence has definitely suffered. An extra year would’ve been a help to him in that way. I’m not sure how much that will matter in the big picture, but at this particular moment in time it matters a lot. Just something to consider. [/quote]
