[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At that point they will green-shirt. [/quote] I can't understand parents who green-shirt. It's almost as if they want their kid to do less well.[/quote] Not if the kid is advanced socially, academically, emotionally, mentally and physically. If you have an anxious kid who is struggling with normal social interactions, academics, physical dexterity, mental acuity etc it makes sense to redshirt them. Similarly if you have a high performing, confident, high IQ and EQ kids in a stable and happy family then they need to be green-shirted so that they can get the instruction and socialization for which they are ready. I have never seen a green-shirted kid do poorly as most of them are high achievers. The red-shirted kids on the other hand are perpetually behind, insecure and odd. [/quote]
