[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t know where your kid will be, OP. My older son is VERY young for his chronological age, and even though he’s on the older end of the grade, was on the lower end for maturity. I was so worried about him starting PK and in fact even a couple months before, he would not have really been ready. My daughter is a late August birthday. She’ll start PK right around her 3rd birthday next month. She could have started six months ago. Seriously. [b]Kids are different. Your kid is one. Give it time, stop borrowing trouble. [/b] Oh and I’ll say this - literally every single kid in my kids PK3 class was born in between the cut offs. Two kids turned 3 the first month of school. It all worked out. [/quote] Exactly this. You do not need to make this decision yet. Don’t assume your kid will be at a disadvantage being the youngest. And as PP says, there will be plenty of near-the-cut-off kids; your daughter will not be the only one. [/quote]
