We had our first run-in where using what Leta Hollingsorth calls "benign chicanery" would have been helpful. Our (cantankerous) local librarian refused to allow DS17mo to attend the story time hour for older children, but he would be bored stupid by the books the babies are read. While I dislike lying, I can see that creative disclosure of age may be necessary going forward...
How did you address set age limits in extracurriculars (ETA: removed school)? Did you charge ahead and change the system, did you fudge birthdays, or do something else? I'm not particularly troubled by the example I gave, but I would like to have a default strategy going forward.
I'm all ears. (Eyes.)
