[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I do consider it gaming the system. Parents redshirt their children to give them an advantage.[/b] It also rewards school systems for having unrealistic expectations, reinforcing the cycle of redshirting and inappropriate expectations. Also, from my DS's experience (September birthday sent on time) and his cousin's experience (September birthday redshirted), in the first couple years, the children either get a false sense of poor behavior or a false sense of mastery. Neither are ideal, but in older elementary school, DS's cousin is really struggling with not finding school easy anymore.[/quote] this[/quote] Without a professionally identified issue then I agree with the whole first paragraph.[/quote] I do also.[/quote]
