[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't follow you, PP. The study suggests that summer-born children (the youngest in their class) are more likely than others to be perceived as underachievers, score lower on tests, and suffer bullying. It doesn't say what happens when those summer-birthday children are shifted to a lower grade. Are you guessing that the held-back summer birthdays will still face these disadvantages, even when they're the oldest in the class? Or are you guessing that if some of the summer birthdays move, then the spring birthdays (now the youngest in the class) will begin to suffer all those same disadvantages?[/quote] I maintain that if summer birthdays move, then spring birthdays in the younger grade will suffer.
