[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not be shy in the slightest to tell them all exactly what you said: “actually, he’s 95th percentile for height but unfortunately it looks like everyone here made their boys start school a year late.”[/quote] I wouldn't say the above. I know nothing about football. Basketball is tough. Teams are small. Not many play at a time. There are definitely people who redshirt so their boys (and girls) can be more successful in sports, especially for private school. Another chance is coming up to hold your kid back and repeat 8th grade. People actually do this. Not much people here can tell you about kids "catching up." Look at genetics and family history. When did your husband hit his growth spurt? Most good private school teams in this area are dominated by Black players. I wouldn't expect much action for an average to tall white kid.[/quote]
