[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regretted it so my child skipped K.  So far it has been the right choice for him.  He's much happier.  We got a lot of pressure to hold back.  I did not think it was a good idea but the school pushed it.  They were wrong about my kid.  [/quote]

Sounds like an inexperience parent. Wait until his in MS and HS. There's a reason why you rarely see parents of middleschoolers, especially highschoolers walking around with a smile on their faces. That frown on their foreheads says they've fought through many battles. I held my child back against when expert told me to move forward, but I wouldn't have ignored them if they'd told me to hold back. They rarely do that. [/quote]

Everyone told me to redshirt my son. I didn't listen because he seemed 100% ready. I've never regretted it. He's now in middle school and doing great. Happy, good student, lots of friends, decent athlete. His teachers tell me they love having him in class. There's no one size fits all approach. [/quote]
