Well it isn't fair becuase I have a son with an August 30 birthday and he is always on the bottom. He never really is on the top of his age group. Even though it isn't fair we cant change so we deal with it. If it wasn't the Sept. 1st date then it could be Jan 1st and then the people with Dec birthdays would be in the boat. Someone always has to be the youngest and the oldest. Wrestle hard and do your best.
