[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know several middle-aged adult men who "failed" kindergarten back in the day and repeated. They are all now intelligent, contributing members of society. Red-shirting is simply taking away that year of "failure" by putting off K for a year. "Redshirting" for sports reasons may be new, but holding kids back for academic or, more likely, social maturity reasons is not.[/quote] Those same men now would almost certainly have been identified as ADHD or other LD and received support within the school system at their appropriate grade level. You can argue over which method is better, but it's really not the same situation.[/quote]
