[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it’s not a clear-cut decision to hold a boy back! At most, it should be a clear-cut YES to send a girl on time and maybe slightly less clear for a boy, but only slightly. This is getting ridiculous. The only kids I knew who waited were girl twins that only barely made the cutoff (but wouldn’t have if they’d been born at term) and had mild SN. And a boy with an even earlier birthday that just “didn’t seem ready”— but that mom completely regretted holding him back.[/quote] That's a huge gender bias. I know I wouldn't want my child to be a 19 year old senior for the entire year dating 17-18 year old girls. You don't know what kids will be like later on so its a huge guessing game but most kids will rise to the challenge.[/quote]
