[quote=Anonymous]I care what others do because the benefit only goes one way.....if you feel your child is not mature enough when FCPS and the state of VA says he/she should go to school, then you have the right to keep him/her home for another year. BUT if someone else's child is more mature but is born on October 5th, that parent does not have the right to send the child early to K. The end result is that the age variance for the grade gets wider and wider every year as people think it is awful to send their July, August or September child on time. I sent my September child, because he is ready. He has been class with children over one year older than him every year. I went through the hallways at his school the other day - another class had displayed a birthday bar graph. NOT ONE CHILD was born in July, August or September. Really? Is that what we are coming to?[/quote]
