[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 141137, member: 1169"] I retained both Eeyore and Piglet. I had them redo first grade. With hindsight, it was the best decision I made for both of them. Eeyore is almost 2 years older than most of his classmates as he was already one of the oldest--just missed the cutoff by a few days. He did start liking girls before the other boys in his class but other than that, he fits in perfectly. His diagnosis at the time was daughter. He will be in all regular classes starting in September. Piglet 'graduated' from her IEP over a year ago. Go with your mommy instinct. If you feel that now is the right time to retain, then go for it. If you don't retain, you could always decide again after Kindergarten and again after 1st grade. [/QUOTE]
