My son was born in November and we are going to redshirt him. For us, the decision is an obvious one based on what we've read and what works for our life. But I understand that an extra year of childcare expenses is also an important factor as well. My wife is willing to delay resuming her career for another year to look after our son. My wife is actually looking forward to having more one-on-one time with him after my daughter starts school next year, something we never got the chance to have much with him since he was a second child.
