[quote=Anonymous]If there is one thing redshirting debates tell me is that the decision to start formal schooling at five is a misguided one as a matter of policy. I come from a country where children begin school at age seven, yes, seven, and there is no such thing as redshirting there. Everyone is ready at age seven. If anything, there are families who petition to enroll their children at age six, since some kids are ready sooner than seven. But five is just too young. Hence the hand-wringing over it. [/quote]
