At least that's academic! Two boys in DS's class were 6 when K started. Both dads outwardly say that they redshirted so the boys would be bigger and stronger to play football. So they're a full year older than most of the kids and a year and a half older than the cutoff! shocked

I so secretly love that my DS who won't be 6 for another month, has been taller than ALL of them since before school started!
