THE REAL REASON JJ IS GOING TO A PRIVATE SCHOOL…

My oldest is 16 and in his senior year of high school. He plays football but I don’t care for sports scholarships I care about academic scholarships. I taught him that at the end of the day football is temporary an education and him having a career is not. I stress over him going to college at 17 but it is what it is.

[@Liamluv707]

It’s coming out more & more how much the NFL covers up the severity of the concussion & head injuries that their players suffer on a fairly regular basis causing the start of a disease called chronic traumatic encephalopathy or CTE. Many players will also deny or minimize injuries, instead choosing a temporary solution like a pain or steroid injection so that they can stay in the game. CTE doesn’t exist just in football either! Anyone engaged in any type of contact sports have to be extra mindful, especially if they’re starting at a young age which makes them even more sucesible to CTE. After the entire Aaron Hernandez/Patriots debacle Aaron’s family chose to turn over his brain for diagnosis & further study. Scientists discovered that the 27 year old was indeed suffering from the worst case of CTE that they had seen so far! He had extensive damage to his various areas of his brain, akin to that of a 60 year old who had been playing contact sports his entire young adult & adult life. Again, as with everything, it all comes down to dollar signs & lining their pockets at the cost of the safety of our young kids. Parents need to be advocates for their kids & rally together for safer & stricter rules when playing contact sports!

Maria and Beau you both are such amazing and supportive parents to all of your kids. I love how you didn’t just make the final decision and you allowed JJ to put in his input. I can definitely see you both only ever want the best for all your kids and their education. They are going to grow up mature, responsible and have so much respect and trust in you both. Congrats to you both and continue doing the amazing job your doing with raising your kids. Always love watching your videos and vlogs and wishing you all the best JJ for this school year

[@andreanez6465]

My son was held back as well. His birthday is September 21st. He is one of the oldest in his class but I totally get where you’re coming from with sports.

[@misssssl13]

Yes. I was confused too. Like why would you want to hold him back just because the other kids birthdays are later and will be graduating at a year later in age. No sense to me. Sports aside. I would never do this to my kid.

I totally respect that. My daughter’s birthday is in December and she was held back and excelling beyond expectations. At first I was against it but logically it made sense in the long run.

[@ABlendedLife]

I was 17 graduating I have a Oct.30th bday my daughter just graduated at 17 my son at 18 in SoCal YOU can’t do that at all we tried with my son and our district said NOPE they ONLY hold back for academic reasons and even that they still don’t they will make them do summer school we switched schools & we were reported to CIF and had to go to court to prove we didn’t move schools for sports it was ridiculous! They made him sit out half the season his senior year because of it

[@mariahcamille1403]

Yes I understand your guy’s reasoning! Graduating at 17 is such a big thing educationally tho! Theyre able to get a headstart on life and with your insight he would have no trouble with that. Towards senior year some kids will make the decision to not continue playing their sport so hopefully he knows what path he wants!! I love yall🙌🏽🥰

[@rubyloredo9950]

[@Mmarissaaaa]

I never understand how ppl talk negative about y'all parenting sometimes when clearly y'all are so involved with them in every aspect of their lives! Every single kid is in sports & activities including zayden lol and it is a lot of work and time consuming as well. With all y'all do y'all still make time for them individually which is hard when you have multiple kids. Plus going on vacations lol Props to y'all! Yes they party too but in my opinion they work hard and play hard and do deserve it after all they do for their kids. This video really shows y'all dedication to the kids individual needs. So I hope ppl see that ☺️ PS.. Do y'all have a chicken Alfredo recipe? Lol

You guys are amazing parents!!! This is really good for him! We keep pushing our kids to grow up so fast, I have had teachers tell me this. What you said is very true Maria, pushing the age limit for July! Nation wide they should do this, I have worked in the school system and you can till a difference on kids that are older, they are more mature and responsible. It helps education wise and sports wise! Teachers that teach high school students can see a difference as well.

[@cindyvargas122]

I completely agree with JJ’s and y’all’s decision. My husband and I asked our twins if they wanted us to hold them back cause their Birthday’s are in October so they started Kindergarten at the age of 4 and they ended up graduating and starting college at the age of 17 and they just weren’t ready for college at that point. We felt like they just weren’t mature enough at the age of 17 to move out and go to college. It’s one of our biggest regret’s! Needless to say they both ended up quitting college and moving back home cause they just weren’t ready for adult life at that age

[@xovictoriag]

This is where parents need to be honest and only do this if the child is an exceptionally gifted athlete. (We all believe our child is a gifted athlete) Doing what's right for a particular child. With that it's a decision that should be made carefully and thoughtfully-with the child's best interest. This is much different than your birthday falling after the school age cutoff. I wish JJ the best of luck! My son also attends Catholic school. Since Pre-K. I highly recommend it if you can afford it. You’re paying for safety and an enriched curriculum.

[@ErikaPerezvictoria]

My daughter goes to a private school too and she starts the end of august going to first grade. I love that they use uniforms but I hate how they can only be bought from a certain website and is constantly out of uniform. And she doesn’t have to buy no school supplies because that added in the fees

My son had to do Tk because of the birthday cut off as well. I was so sad and frustrated about It when he started school. Him and his cousin are 6 months apart but are in diffrent grades. He will be starting 2nd grade and now I feel like it benefited him and I see a lot of kids are in the same situation. Takes time to get use to.

My birthday is in oct, so I graduated at 17. In the moment I was loving it.

My son is being held back this year in Arizona though. He is 4 and doesn’t turn 5 until December. If I had enrolled him in the charter though they would have let him enter in kindergarten.

[@jennifervillegas9058]

I have a July birthday and was usually one of the youngest in my friend groups but I liked not having to wait till I was 18 to graduate. Like by the time I started college I was already 18 so it didn't make a difference vs other people who got held back for their birthday or academically were almost 19 if not already like they were old. I feel like he should've been held back waaay younger because repeating higher grades is so much more work. Best of luck to JJ!

I held my son back for the same reason, he is 13 and started 7th grade. My step daughter is also 13 and starting 7th grade BUT it's because she was born late in November.
