[quote=Anonymous]Who handles more of the daily school stuff (homework, meetings, etc), you or DH? If it's your wheelhouse, tell him that this is one of the tradeoffs of you having so much responsibility for school stuff: you get to make the decisions that will affect you more. These are other arguments: 1) If he goes on to struggle, the amount of money and time you will spend address that will surpass the extra year of preschool 2) once he does K anywhere, there is pretty much a 0% chance that he will be allowed to repeat K unless you pay for private school (which will likely be more than the extra year of preschool) 3) if he struggles in school for any year there is 0% chance that he will be allowed to repeat a grade, unless you move him to private, which will be more than the year of preK 4) IRL, no one regrets red shirting, though there are always crazy women on the internet who make up all kinds of stuff [/quote]
