[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think you nailed it when you said you wanted him to fit in. In school, there's nothing more important than blending in with your classmates. You don't want to do something to your child will cause them stand out, and since the vast majority of summer kids are 5 their entire Kindergarten year and 17 their entire senior year of high school, being 6 your entire Kindergarten year and 18 your entire senior year of high school is a recipe for awkwardness. There's nothing more important than making sure your child is in the majority, and the vast majority of students go on time.[/quote] And, most of the kids will turn eighteen during the school year--not the following summer. OP, if your kid fits in now--he is probably okay. If he is more immature than the others, go with your gut and keep him back a year.[/quote]
