[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can I revive this? My child was born two days before the cutoff in DC, which is late so as to scoop up all those at-risk kids (which is great). But he’s a boy and now the pandemic. I think it’s reasonable but I was met with so much resistance and formality from his teacher. I don’t want him to be 16 starting his senior year of high school. Does this make me unreasonable and trying to get him to have a leg up on his peers? His speech therapy is on hold and he’ll miss most of kindergarten. Am I nuts for wanting to hold him back?[/quote] You're not nuts as long as you're just putting him in school in learn. As long as you don't have him sign up for any competitions, your decision is fine. And by the way, it's not like he'd be 16 his entire senior year, just the first few months. There's a BIG difference between starting 12th grade at 16 and turning 17 before the new year, and starting 12th grade at 16 and turning 17 after the new year.[/quote]
