I had to consider this with DD2 as she is an April baby.

I really think that "holding back" is not the right term and really puts a negative spin in the choice. I look at it this way, you have a choice of when to send your child to school and am more inclined to see sending them the first possible year as sending early, as opposed to the "holding back" that is used for waiting for the second year.

I hate it when people refer to me "holding back" DD2, I am not holding her back, I am sending her at the time that is right for her. I think to change the terminology to take negative terms out of it can put a different spin on things
