Anybody have their kid redshirt Kindergarten in Louisiana?

Homeschool bro, it's a pain in the arse but it'll payoff when we're retired with that NFL money.

Teach them nothing from birth, not even how to talk or use the toilet. Boom, got you an automatic redshirt!

I know too many parents that redshirted their kids for bullshite reason and celebrate all their kids awards in 2nd and 3rd grade. No shite your kids seems advanced around kids a whole year young plus fact they will be 19 graduating high school. Loser parents.

Parkview Baptist tried to redshirt Pimp Jr when he was in Kindergaten. Even though he had solid grades and no behavioral issues they said "he has a low attention span". I said "no shite, he's in kindergarten". I said hell no and burned that front office down.I literally yelled at them. Now that he's going into his sophomore year at BRMHS I realize even more how stupid and counterproductive that would have been.

My youngest daughter actually skipped kindergarten. She went from pre-K to 1st grade,and now she's the youngest girl in 8th grade. She makes straight A's and is a social butterfly. So we went the other direction and it worked out perfectly.

Just hire a tutor for those travel ball trips. Once he gets drafted, he won't have to worry about SAT scores anyway.

My nephew's birthday is Oct 1, the day after the cutoff. His parents held him back to the next year, no pushback from the school. Another kid in his class, a girl, had the same birthday and her parents did the same thing. Both just finished 8th grade and doing great. Both tallest in the class instead of shortest, both making straight A's and both socially well-adjusted. I wouldn't hold a kid back if they're already one of the oldest in the class, but if it's borderline, waiting has a lot of advantages. And I wouldn't make them repeat a grade, it's better to just wait a year to start school.

My brother graduated HS at a young 17, and it wasn't an issue until he got to college, where he struggled the first year due to immaturity.
