[quote=Anonymous]I have a 9/13 bday DS in a county with a 9/30 cutoff. We chose to send him to K. The alternative was another year of pre-k, where they were still having 2 hr naps/quiet time (he stopped napping by 3) and not nearly engaging or challenging intellectually. DH was a stay-at-home-dad, so get the "I didn't want to pay for daycare" idea out of your head. DS struggled with reading because he stuttered, but excelled in math. This could happen to any kid, regardless of age. My other DS also struggled with reading due in part to stuttering and he was one of the oldest kids in his class. I felt that being in school, where he could easily get Speech Therapy in a pull-out/push-in environment was the best place for him. DS is also an outgoing, warm, funny, and bright kid. It helps his self confidence that he doesn't look like the youngest in class (he's nearly the tallest in his class).[/quote]
