For those of you who have decided to accelerate, did anyone regret this decision - if so, why? I'm trying to figure out if I should start my dd3 in kindergarten early next year at 4.5 - academically - no sweat. easy decision... but socially/emotionally ?? She is physically small for her age, so I can see that she would certainly be much smaller than the other children. The director thinks it would be a bad idea because she feels that my although daughter can read at a second grade level, she would not be able to "walk into the room and command the classroom" - which is true - is this an important factor?
