[quote=Anonymous]Our kiddo has an August birthday but she taught herself to read when she was 4. It seemed silly to keep her out of kindergarten when she was already reading even though she was socially immature and small for her age. We ended up having her repeat eighth grade when she transferred schools. THis worked much better for her because it kept her from getting bored in elementary school and the point at which she really needed the extra year was her early teens, not in kindergarten. She was also really small for her age but had a growth spurt when she was 14 so she actually entered high school the same size as the other children -- which was a first for us![/quote]
