[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that people have a strong reaction to being told that they are cheaters. In this case as it is within the rules I don't think its cheating. More like one more way parents use money to equalize a child's deficiencies (perceived, actual or not even considered) . The parents who do this at 4 continue it, so those of us who have several/older kids have seen this. Most probably don't really care one way or the other about redshirting, if you say your kid is behind I believe you. Many of us do get tired at watching other parents constantly trying to control and manipulate every single facet of their kids existence, redshirting is just a signal about what type of parent one is dealing with as a generality.

Not a redshirting parent--but, you have a problem if you think this is control and manipulation.  Deciding that your four year old (or just turned five) is not ready for K is not control and manipulation, in my opinion.  It is basic common sense and good parenting.  [/quote]
