[Skunk]

People are always so quick to judge others. This post is from a parent that allowed his son to hold back for athletic reasons and I will say that it was the best choice for him. He looked so much more comfortable his second 8th grade year and his leadership skills made a big difference in the locker room. People are going to agree with you about holding your child back and some will disagree, but in the end you and your child have to live with that choice. An advantage for me is the fact that I get to enjoy my son for [B]one more year before I send him off into college life[/B].

So you are living your life through your son! Good grief!
