[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, your reasons are not compelling to me. Academically he sounds ready. You mention a few bullies who were older. My child has been bullied by much younger kids. This won't solve your problem. In my opinion, whenever I see a redshirted child, I assume s/he has learning or social issues. Of course, I would never say that to you but that's what I would think. [/quote] funny about that My son started K a year later b/c he was going through speech and OT. We thought it was best to hold him back. Now, he's a superstar and way ahead of his "true" peers had he not been held back. Maybe we overreacted, but I can't say I care. He's doing very well, is social, and a role model, according to his teachers. May kid, too . . . So you thought correctly, PP, but that doesn't mean that kids don't outgrow their issues and surpass others in the meantime. [/quote]
