[quote=Anonymous]Not the PP, but this describes us too. We have a September birthday boy who entered kindergarten a few weeks shy of his 5th birthday (the cutoff was 9/30 at the time). Bright but immature. And, now in 10th grade, still bright and still immature, though not by quite as much. It was hard in the lower grades because my son had a hard time regulating his emotions. But he's matured a lot, and my husband and I both thought there was a pretty big risk he'd be acting out on account of being bored if we held him back. He's not the most social kid in the world, but I highly doubt that would have been different if we had started him a year later. Nerdy tendencies run strong in both our families. And again, he's been very happy in high school. He has friends, does very well academically, and pursues other interests. In terms of physical maturity, he's well within the normal range for kids in his grade, though still on the short side.[/quote]
