[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 521448, member: 11791"] We wanted to hold difficult child back, and were over-ridden. In retrospect, I'm super glad we did NOT hold him back. He's a winter baby, so one of the younger ones in the class, but... we are able to stretch his HS out by a year and still have him graduate with his peers, because... he IS one of the youngest. If we had held him back, it would have made it very difficult to buy time now. I'm wary of holding back, UNLESS they are "just barely" going to squeek in on the age definitions. You don't want him to end up being the "oldest" in the class, either - just a different set of challenges. [/QUOTE]
