BTDT and now early entrance DD is in the high school.  SHe emotionally fits better in 8th grade.  I regret pushing her ahead.[/quote]

Your experience is exactly what we would like to hear, someone's experience of EEK in high school. Could you elaborate or provide examples?

It's difficult when people point to high school as the reason not to do early entrance, when DC is only 4. [/quote]

But that's the issue.  The social differences don't become obvious until late elementary.  You can't switch her back then,[/quote]

There are two choices:

1. Send the child based on what you know now (namely that the child is ready), and deal with potential future problems in the future, if they arise.
2. Disregard what you know now (namely that the child is ready), on grounds that potential future problems may (or may not) arise in the future.

I sent my child when my child was ready.[/quote]

+1. And there is no formula that works for all. It really is based on the individual child. Ours was young and did well both socially and academically all the way through HS.[/quote]
