[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before you redshirt, just remember that you will have a year of parenting an adult in the future. So many of my friends who redshirted their boys had huge struggles once they reached 18 and still had another year of HS left. Lots of "you can't make me, I'm 18" and fighting. [/quote] And if you don’t redshirt a late August birthday, you’ll most likely be dropping off a 17 year old, non-adult to college, since many colleges start mid-August. There are downsides to that as well. [/quote] What do you believe are the downsides? DS was youngest male in his HS class, and is now at a top school, and president of his fraternity as a sophomore. It hasn’t seemed to affect him at all. He is loving life. [/quote]
