[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the OP and wanted to give an update. DS got his master’s degree this past spring from a top university and now has a 150k job. However, he says he still hasn’t fully recovered from watching his peers graduate before him. We know we can’t change the past, but I’m hoping that parents of fall-born children who haven’t started school yet will consider holding back.[/quote] I’m glad you son is doing well. I know other kids who similarly wish they’d been given that gift of time, and others who did fine as the youngest. In the DC area though with the cost or childcare for s really good preK a lot of people would rather put the $25k into something else. - parent of a redshirted child [/quote]
