[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Redshirting is most commonly practiced by white UMC boys. That’s how i know it’s beneficial, the most socially powerful group engages in it and now that same group is trying to gaslight people to look the other way so that they can maintain the unfair playing field. [/quote] Thank you, NP! And no one hysterical, just pointing out the fact that when summer bdays redshirt to gain and advantage/lose a disadvantage they are making the next in line take the role- April and May kids. I dont have an April/ May kid but this is still a fact. You could just own it and move on rather than try to rationalize.[/quote] A kid who is 5 years and 4 months starting kindergarten vs a kid who is still 4 until his birthday 8/30 when he turns 5 has a humongous advantage. At that age months matter. As the kids age, months matter much less. Which is why this evens out by 3rd/4th grade. And it's telling you don't even have any skin in this game. it's almost like you have no understanding of childhood development whatsoever. [/quote]
