We don't all give birth to geniuses and some kids NEED to be held back in order to move forward.

I hope it works out for your kids, one way or the other. It's never easy to know what's the right thing to-do. I don't think smartness is a goal in itself but it's never easy when you feel that everyone else is doing better, and today's school is very competitive.
