Well, it's official. After meeting with the psych, teacher and vp today we are keeping ds in prep for another year. I get it, I know it's right, I'm just so very sad.
In the last couple of days he has got his first party invitation for the year and started talking about who he wants to invite to his birthday, so he's definitely moving forward, I just don't think it's enough. He's also still struggling with fine and gross motor skills.
But he has also started talking about going int grade 1 next year, and now we have to tell him he isn't.
We're going to go with 'there are some things we want you to get more practice with before you start grade 1', but I still can't predict how he will take it. I think we'll hold off til Friday so he has the weekend to process it.
I don't want to hurt his feelings
