That's exactly what I was considering doing - making a 26 into a 2. It seems *so* much easier than having him in preschool another half a year and then desperately looking for a school that will take him when he turns 5. We live in a rural area with very few schools to try.
But... we want him at the same charter school as his sister, and I wouldn't want to ruin our relationship with them if/when they found out.
And, my husband was horrified by the idea of him not knowing his real birthday. (Although, as I also have a right-after-Christmas birthday, I think a pre-Christmas birthday is much better! I have changed my celebration to 4th of July because I
love fireworks. And warmth.
)
Thanks to everyone for talking me down from my criminal delusions.
