It is my business if my kid has to compete against someone 13 months older than them.[/quote]

It can be more than 13 months.  My child is a September kid so if someone holds back their March, April, May, June kid, its far more of an age spread than 13 months.[/quote]

Why would anyone do that? A kid born in June is already on the older half. I guess they want their kid to be at-least 7 months older than any other kid. If holding back a child who's already slated to be on the older half doesn't scream greed, I don't know what does.[/quote]

My friend redshirted her early July daughter; the girl repeated 1st grade. The girl had reading issues. She was not pleased about doing this because our school had universal pk3 and pk4. She had done pk4, Kindergarten, and 1st (first time around), then she went to 2nd grade for about a month before dropping back with one group of kids and then her parent yanked her and she had to make all new friends.
