[quote=Anonymous]I don't have any kids, so I'll speak for my parents' reasoning for redshirting me, someone with a late-September birthday. Simply put, my parents assumed that the advantages that come with being the oldest would be more important to me than being on a normal schedule. Sure, redshirted kids usually do better in school, but for some people, being at top of their class just isn't that important to them. I've never been passionate about being the best academically and things like being class president, valedictorian, getting into a top-20 were just never that important to me.[/quote]
