[quote=Anonymous]It appears some parents want to make the call on these decisions for children sharing the same classroom as their own. I would reject this overture as no parent has any business making a decison about what classroom any other child belongs in based on his chronological age. If this absurd and preposterous policy were instituted then some children, like my own, would be held back or redshirted for 2 to 3 years just to get back to the mean age of classmates. On the other hand a 6 or 7-year-old that was still bedwetting and could not read would be forced to potentially move to far ahead simply because paranoid parents fear this child would automatically assume the classroom leadership positions, take all the high marks and quarterback the school's K football squad; thereby putting their own child at some disadvantage![/quote]
