MK personally I think it's possibly fine for some kids but mostly a terrible idea. Especially so in your own child's case. I'd also gently suggest that you'll probably have way better chance of figuring out if he's just a bit ansynchronous and those very normal for age issues will settle down or if he has a problem. Schools can be VERY slow to agree an LD is possibly at play.
that's what I'm a little worried about. It's quite possible that by the time they even get to writing / spelling, he might had already been pulled out of school by then. He keeps complaining about not learning much and at the same time not having any chance to play and to top it off has already started his old "trick" of answering all of my more challenging questions with "I don't know. We haven't learned that yet!". So it's all turning out to be way more disappointing than we expected.
