[quote=Anonymous] When your child is not developing normally, that's when you have a problem. I redshirted my son for Kindergarten because he was developmentally delayed on all fronts. He had accommodations, notably for speech therapy, put in place at school. He started reading Harry Potter in 1st grade and doing multidigit multiplication. We had to put him back with his peers for 3rd grade. And now he's struggling in 4th grade, despite being in the 99% percentile on every standardized test. Turns out he is gifted yet also learning disabled. It is VERY difficult to know where to place such a child. [/quote]
