To me the extra year in a job is trivial because I spent close to 9 years in school, working part-time to pay for college&#x2F;grad school. And who knows what the future holds? However, I am hoping that by the time they&#x27;re in high school, they will take dual-enrollment classes and finish college a year early; something I wasn&#x27;t able to do. I have twins and I spoke to my wife last night about this...whatever happens, we both wish for them to be in the same grade. We would hate for our daughter to skip a grade because she&#x27;s developed faster...which is also not fair to her.
