My child tested for Kindergarten and his scores were very low (Below the below average score). He is 5 yrs old and turns 6 in August. What should I do? Should I hold him back, or if I start him will be catch up?

Gary's Answer:

You want your child to have every chance possible to be successful. Socially and intellectually he'll be a lot more mature one year from now. If you enroll him in kindergarten this coming school year the chances are high that you'll be saying all year, "Will he ever catch up,"

But if you wait a year, the chances are high that you and your son will be happy camper, "He sure is making good friends and he's enjoying learning." Wait a year and I think you'll ensure the beginning of a happy learning experience for your son.
