I have a 16 year old that would have started kindergarten at 4 yrs old.
We held him back. Instead of the youngest he's now one of the oldest. Maturity wise was the best thing to do.
What your speaking of is much different than trying to keep your child back or repeat a grade level for Football as this family did. #1 it gives him an advantage at his "grade level" 6th grade.
Wonder what the negatives are if any?
