[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The people so up in arms about redshirting as "cheating" reveal themselves to be absurdly competitive about childhood. Meanwhile the parents who actually face this decision invariably are considering only their particular child's needs. We considered (but ultimately did not) redshirting, and believe me, it had nothing to do with trying to get him an advantage. PS if you are also the types of parents who moan about lack of differentiation in K for your "advanced reader," you get an extra special helping of stfu. [/quote] Very well put. When DH and I considered redshirting our DS we only considered our child’s needs. I could care less what any of the teachers, parents or other kids think. We did what was best for our child. We didn’t red shirt for any kind of an advantage. Leave a child with significant SN’s and it turned out to be the right decision for DS. [/quote]
