[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] You would think that, but as you're reading here, so many parents assume boys with August birthdays will start late. Even when my kid was a newborn, I had people say to me, "Well he'll be the oldest in his class since you can start him late". WTF?

It's not just "this city" or affluent people...I spent the first 15 years of my education career (1995-2010) as a kindergarten teacher in a very middle class part of the Midwest (Appleton, WI area - 9/1 cutoff) and the [b]vast[/b] majority of August boys went to school at a young 6 instead of young 5.
