[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is anecdotal, but in my kid's day care the only kid i know being redshirted actually has a late September birthday, which is well within the fealm of reasonable. An extra $18k is a lot to pay for that![/quote]

I’m a sahm who redshirted, [b]all of the kids that I know in her grade who were redshirted have sahms as well. [/b][/quote]

Why is this?  I actually don't know many redshirted kids, but if the SAHMs who redshirt is a thing, any idea why?

[b]I do recall a SAHM at my kid's school telling me that she tried to time her pregnancies so that they were old for grade--I remembering being surprised, since that's not something that was ever on my radar, nor did I consider it to be necessarily advantageous[/b].[/quote]

I'm the sahm who redshirted.  I actually tried to time my pregnancies so that my kids would be the oldest in their grades as well.  [/quote]
Ha. I'm a WOHM who didn't necessarily time it, but was very grateful to have babies in September- among the older ones in their class, but also didn't have to have the the redshirt vs. not redshirt debate. [/quote]
