[quote=Anonymous]Our kid was a September birthday at a private school with a Sept 1 cutoff. Our public school system had a Sept 30 cutoff. He ended up being involuntarily red-shirted compared to his public school peers. He started off at the older end of the class age spectrum, and I wasn't thrilled. He's graduated from university now, so I'm looking back, and it doesn't seem such a big thing as it did when he was 3. His cohort was affected by covid, and many of his college classmates took a gap year in the middle of their degrees. Some friends had medical issues and took a gap year. Some friends changed majors or degrees and took longer. Regardless, they have forty or more years of work ahead of them, and it matters little whether they start this at 20 or 21 or 22 or 23 or 24.[/quote]
