[quote=Anonymous]My recently adopted daughter (international adoption) has a summer birthday and turned 11 before starting fifth grade this year. I was worried that she'd be the oldest, but she's not! In the fall there was one nine-year-old and a bunch of 10s and 11s; at this point there are a few 10s and a lot of 11s. It's not an issue. To those who have sounded scornful about 18-year-old seniors and 19-year-old college freshmen, please remember that you may not always know who's adopted, who spent time in foster care, who had medical issues as a young child, etc. etc. etc. Just be glad for them that they're in school.
