[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re: What people call "redshirting" - holding kids back a year just to gain an advantage. If one is going to do this, when should it be done? Start a child in K at 6 or 6.5 instead of 5?[/quote] Ha! I had this debate 16 years ago on DCUM! My friends who held their kids back uniformly sent them to private schools and those kids are now at tippy top schools. Mine, not so much. There is a two year spread between some boys applying for college! [/quote]
