Is holding your child a year back in school a good idea? I feel my child can cope up with other children born months apart and its wasteful to let a year pass..

if you feel that way and if your child is also interested in studies on a general basis, then i don't think its important to hold back a year. both my kids are the youngest in their class by quite a few months and we had to sign a no objection letter stating that we were fine with it. and both have not only coped up wonderfully but are also top of their class. as long as you are sure it won't pressurize the child, i don't feel there's any harm.
