The school wants to graduate my 7 yr old grandson from 3rd grade to a 5th grade gifted class. He is small for his age. I have advised his father to sit in on the class first and talk to the teacher.
Can anyone give me their experience with a young student advancing through the grades? I know I have read stories about very young students graduating from high school, even college. I just wonder about the pros and cons that we might not be considering. I think bullying heads our list, but it is hard to be objective. Of course, every parent wants their child to do their best while still being socially adjusted and psychologically healthy.
