hey if a kid needs to stay back for maturity or other legitiment reasons then i am all for it. i have stated that in a earlier post. if this is the case then that is a handful to overcome and there is no time for sports, also when a kid is held back for maturity reasons most of the time they still act immature anyway because they are around immature kids all day long. you can always tell who are the ones do it for sports because they are the ones that yell the loudest with all the lame excuses.quit being ashamed and just admit it and go on QUIT using the immature card. that would put an end to arguments like this one. we all know there are advantages to doing it.

i'm outta here i have better things to do rather than listening to all the whinning and lame excuses of unneccesarly holding kids back because that is exactly what is doing to kids holding them back.

...and what's wrong with trying to gain an advantage for your kid, as long as it's within the rules? It's why we send them to camps, work with them on the side, study with them, take them to games, get them certain types equipment to use, etc., all to try and gain an advantage over their counterparts.
