[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We didn't redshirt because we didn't want to waste a year of our son's life.[/quote] +1, its different to be taking about a 5 year old vs. 18/19 year old. They will not remember being 5, they will remember being held back as a Senior.[/quote] What? They will be held back at 5, you know, a time they don't remember. At 18/19 they are graduating with the rest of their peers. How do you feel about people who don't go to college right away? Are gap year students wasting a year of their lives? Or those on Mormon mission? Not everybody is on the same trajectory. If a kid needs more time to mature so that he doesn't "waste" his school years struggling and trying to catch up then I think that kid will have a better chance at future success by starting kindergarten late. Big whoop.[/quote]
