[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I'm FFX County.and my mid June DS will definitely be starting in September when he's five. He's ready. His sister is two years younger and born in mid-September and will be starting when she's 4. I only want them two years apart grade wise.[/quote]

I dont understand your last point.  Why does it matter they are only two grades apart?  What difference is if it is three or two?

Dont short change your daughter.[/quote]

They'll be in same schools together longer, activities will be somewhat closer age wise, less daycare cost, etc.  She's two now and I have no concerns with her.development thus far that would indicate to me that she won't be ready to start on time. She's extremely independent, speaks wells, no delays or concerns. Not everyone wants to delay every aspect of their children's lives.

Dont you think about the difference in high school when she is so much younger?  Also thy hree years isnt that much of a difference but your kid so you have to worry about the consquences not us[/quote]

I grew up in NY where the cutoff is November 30, and had plenty of friends born in September, October, and November and they all did fine. Red shirters are the problem, not those who start there kids in accordance with the due dates. I'm not going to delay my children's lives so they are not the smallest in the class. [/quote]

+1. I have a summer bday, my brother has an October bday and I have several close friends with September bdays. None of us were redshirted and we all did very well in school. [/quote]
