I think that gradeskips are cumbersome to undo, but not impossible by any means - so long as there is something better to do than keep moving along - there are as many ways to decelerate as there are to accelerate.
I think that if we concentrate on meeting each individual child's needs as best as possible (as least worst?) with the available materials then we are doing the right thing.
I have started to notice that as my son gets older, he is interested in a wider variety of things than when he was young, so there is more for him to be advanced in, and it is less often obvious that he is as advanced as he is. Plus he has much more control about how much of his true self he shares in various situations.
Food for thought,
