[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh. I have an august 31 DD that i will not be red shirting. She will end up in 9th grade with kids a full 18 months older. [/quote]

So don’t go to private schools where they redshirt. Problem solved. Such ridiculous whining. [/quote]

My DD was born on Aug 26th and we redshirted her. The oldest kids are born in July so maybe 13-14 months older than your DD… not 18. Stop with the drama (or change school/redshirt, etc.)[/quote]

You people make no sense.  If a 14+ age gap is no big deal, then why is it a problem to have your child in his right-age class?  Because he's not yet "ready"?  But isn't it okay if he is a year less "ready" since that gap is negligible?[/quote]

It is impossible to reason with you… I thought maybe we had not explained it well enough, but at this point, you are the issue. I will repeat it ONE MORE TIME.

A 13-14 months spread might be totally fine if the oldest kids are as mature as the rest. Some kids need more time and some don’t. It’s up to the parents and school officials to decide what is best for each particular kid.

Do you get it now or do we need to draw you a picture? Stop repeating the same sentence over and over again[/quote]
