[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Also affects the class when young summer boys can't behave, which I've seen happen much more frequently.[/quote] If a kid can't behave when s/he is in the age-appropriate grade, maybe the problem is how the class is being run. A class for five-year-olds should be able to accommodate the range of five-year-old behavior. [/quote] DD is in 4th grade, and has been in classes with several different redshirted boys over the years. Every single one of them has been among worst behaved students in her classes. Holding them back didn't make them behave any better. It just makes them seem older and cooler to the younger boys who follow their lead.[/quote]
