[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Send him. Like a PP said, any disadvantage he experiences now will vanish. A 6-year-old may have a huge emotional advantage over a 5-year-old, but fast forward. In high school, the emotional difference between a 17-year-old and an 18-year-old is virtually non-existent, but who do you think will do better? [b]The 18-year-old who had everything come easy to them, or the 17-year-old who actually had to work to achieve their goals?[/quote][/b] It's very relevant how good your school is at differentiating. Some schools are really good at keeping all kids challenged. Our school has a reputation for being quite tough academically, so I'm not afraid that my son will have everything come to him easily. There's plenty for him to learn. If your school has poor quality academics, or does zero differentiating, it might be more of an issue.[/quote]
