No real regrets after skipping our young-for-grade son at the end of K, but then we've only had one skip. DS experienced brief bullying but stuck up for himself and got past it, and seems to have integrated well socially. Though the academic level and pace still aren't close to right for him, he's less bored than he would have been, will spend one year less being bored, and is better set up for future skips.
Now, his additional subject pullout for math has been almost a complete waste, since the higher-level work there turned out to be just as inadequate to meet his needs. There is talk now of doing a pull-out to the middle school for math, or letting him work at his own level and pace while sitting in the third grade classroom. But the subject pull-out to fourth was probably a necessary interim step for this school to try before considering further options (which is why I used the word "almost" above).
