Name: Preetha



hi ,

This question might sounds like a stupid one , but i need a good answer . My son he was born in NOV 05 , i know he is 5 , but my hubby kept on telling he is still 4 and only this NOV he will be 5 , even when we go to dr visit here they say he is 4 years and 2 months . Why do they calculate this way in US .

Please advice

hi preeta
your son is 4 years, as completed age is taken into consideration, his 5th year is running, so this nov 2010 he will complete 5 years.
I hope this was useful

bye the way

As far as I know, be it US or India - Age = Running - 1. So if do not intend to mention the months, he is 4 years.

hello jayashree
dont get afraid and dont loose hopes, your son is absolutely fine, and give him the proper tuition and avoid more playing periods of his, and you should teach him at home when you will get free time.... - praglabh [View Message]
