Personally I don’t think boys should graduate at age 17...

Just curious as to why? I graduated at 17, my oldest son was 18 years and 1 month when he graduated and my youngest will be the same. So far, with the help of the good Lord we are doing well and they are thriving. Maturity isn’t in a number. I know the brain in males doesn’t fully mature until about 25 years old but I would argue that maturity is mostly a learned trait. I’ll say it again, I believe holding back is a family’s choice but I also believe too many folks do it for the wrong reason.....but that’s just my opinion.
