I just can't seem to talk myself into it. He is old for his class which is not ideal with an IQ of 153 but he missed the deadline by 11 days. I have not met anyone who has accelerated and were glad they did so I worry about it. I just don't know what to do. He doesn't act out at all, he is actually an angel at school but he is very bored and doesn't ever work on anything even close to his level. After the first semester of first grade he tested on a late 4th grade reading level and 3rd grade math level. If I skipped him to 3rd then I don't think that would challenge him any more than he would be in second and I could never talk myself into advancing him two grades. Sigh, this sucks.
