[quote=Anonymous]OP, my kids are almost 5 years apart and #2 is always trying to keep up with his older brother, now 10yo. He is absolutely in a different place as he gets ready to start K in a few weeks than his older brother was at the same milestone. He also gravitates to older kids on the playground, has a vocabulary and pop culture tastes better suited to a 5th grader than a K student, etc etc. I think this is very very very typical of kids who are not first-borns. Holding your child back won't change those dynamics. And btw, a lot of the kids starting K aren't first borns either, and they will be at all different levels of readiness and developmental stage.[/quote]
