[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe in one district (out west), you cannot redshirt your child unless you have a doctor's note, ie, developmental delay, etc.[/quote] Then everyone will claim developmental delay. If you need a note then there should be a heavily documented evaluation and services and solid reason why. Most kids with developmental days are not in heavy private services so they are much better off starting on time.[/quote] I assume if the doctor agrees then yes, the child is delayed. I guess you could have dishonest or lazy doctors who just write up whatever the parent wants, though. FWIW, both my kids are summer babies, and they both started on time. They have always been the smallest and weakest, one of the more immature kids. Academically, never an issue. They are in MS/HS but still one of the smallest, and still doing really great academically. [/quote]
