[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Still wrong. Redshirting is done by insecure parents to ensure their son has an advantage on the kids in the traditional age spectrum. [/quote] Said the idiot. [/quote] I think not. I am sure there are examples of redshirting done for legitimate reasons. EVERY parent I know who redshirted his child, however, did it be he wants his kid to be the oldest so they can shine academically, athlectically or socially compared to a younger peer group. It must feel great to know your 7 year old is the leader of of a class of 6 year olds. Bravo! [/quote] Sounds like the class will have lots of 7 year olds. As I said earlier, the concept of redshirting boys seems to make sense because of maturity differences. As more and more do it though, it will be more of a disadvantage to have a younger boy. We're probably entering a time when boys will average a year older than girls in the same grade.[/quote]
