delaying kindergarten for one year? Anyone experience with this?

[Guest guest]

Has anyone tried to delay starting kindergarten for their child?How old is your child now?  How receptive are school districts to this idea?Some are adamantly against it, depends where you are--what state are u in?  What if you tell the SD that during this year, you would forego their services (i.e. class, Speech, OT)?DON'T DO THIS. YOU WILL REGRET IT. Would this make it easier to get the school district to agree? NO. They will use this against you to deny services when he does start.

Basically, I think delaying kindergarten for my son may be a good idea. During this year, I would put him in private school and private OT, Speech. Thanks for any advice, experience you may have.
