[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind that an 18-year old needs no parental permission for activities and can compel the school to not share information with you. This can greatly complicate any fits of teen angst and family conflict during their last year of school.

(And yes, looking at your sweet five-year old, you may be certain that won’t be you. But the teen years have a way of surprising everyone.) [/quote]

I have an 18 y/o senior (Sept birthday, not red shirted) and a 14 y/o 8th grader (special needs, red shirted). I agree that there doesn't seem to be much reason for OP to red-shirt, but don't agree with your point. Kids are going to turn 18 either in high school or in college. If they are shutting you out and not allowing the school not speak to you, you have much bigger problems than the fact that you red shirted. Also, I'd personally rather go through that while my child is still in high school and living at home rather than when they have moved away to another state.[/quote]
