Painter had a personal interest in the research. He has a son with an August birthday, and wasn’t sure whether to send him to kindergarten as one of the youngest in his class, or hold him back a year.“If you're on the fence, send them to kindergarten. If they struggle, then have them repeat kindergarten,” he said.
“That was a practical thing for a parent to do, and that’s what I did as a parent. I sent my kid to kindergarten, and for him, he was fine," he said."He proceeded along without an issue and now he’s a 20-year-old in college."
