[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son's birthday is August 31. He is currently in k, and won't turn 6 until he starts first grade. I wouldn't even contemplate holding him back. He is very advanced academically. He's always done well socially but at the beginning of the year it was clear that some of the kids were at a different stage, socially (though others were not.) That gap seems to have lessened as the year has gone on. OP, things can change very quickly. By Aug your son may be a very different child, both academically and socially. [/quote] This is not when you see the difference. The difference doesn't start to show up until 3 and 4th grade. Then you realize that you made a mistake by putting him in. We know this from experience. It has NOTHING to do with academics. It's all social and maturity.[/quote]
