[quote=Anonymous]My point is that it is sex discrimination and that it is tolerated.  It is blatant.  If it was blatant race discrimination it would never happen.  They would not be so direct and the community as a whole would not tolerate it.  Plus they would be sued.  Also, do you think if someone believes that boys can not sit still that it is impossible for them to think that other races are inferior or can not keep up.  It becomes a slippery slope.  When you believe one sterotype you are likely to believe another.  What about black boys?  Is the age cut-off different for black boys?  Do you think they would give a black summer birthday the benefit of the doubt?  What about April?

And yes, I am black.  I do not think there are a ton of spots for black kids in a lot of the privates that I looked at.  Maybe 1 to 3 spots per grade but that was it, not sure how many applicants but if there was 4 qualified black applicants 1 was getting left out.

Not to worry, I think you can reenroll your child, I think they stop checking age either entering 2nd or 3rd.[/quote]
