[quote=Anonymous]I was always the youngest (summer birthday with summer cutoff, born right before cutoff). I was doing great academically, never had any problems, top of the class throughout. However, socially, did not do so well, this started particularly after grade 5 to about grade 8/9. That was not a good time for me. I was way behind the other girls as far as interests in boys, make-up etc. Just could not relate. In retrospect, I don't know how much was SES-related also. I was in a very mixed environment (with few students interested in excelling academically) until the later grades (high school), where I developed a pretty solid circle of friends. Then, college and grad school were great. [/quote]
