[quote=Anonymous][quote]If every kid is May - May and it's enforced by the school, that is wonderful. Nothing wronmg with a 12 mopnth age span. It's the "dinosaurs" that are 18+ months older than peer group with which I take exception---especially when they are bright, social and athletic kids. BTW, I do belive that most of the responsibility for redshirting abuses lay at the feet of administrators that allow it.[/quote]

I was 2 to 3 years younger than the kids in my educational classes throughout.  I did not have a problem with this and neither did my parents.
And, it does not present a problem for both my kids with many children 18 months older than them going into 5th and 2nd Grades.  I have not witnessed abuse on the part of the administrators in this regard.  It appears that others may have a different experience or opinion on this matter than you.  I suggest you find a school with a tight 12 month boundary around the kids your children are allowed to school with in the classroom.  If you can't, I'm afraid tough luck.  In future, I wonder how your children will deal with reporting to a younger supervisor or boss in the workplace?[/quote]
