[quote=Anonymous] From the very beginning, I used books and learning to escape a rigid and stressful household. Teachers determined this tendency made me "gifted." Er, okay. I ended up testing "highly superior" but was never competitive about academic successes. Unhappy, fat kid coping. That's all. My children appear bright to me, but I'll let them guide me in regards to their talents. I absolutely require that my children are well-mannered and exposed to culture as part of their overall literacy. They have a solid nerd model in me. They see me reading the paper and books or hunched over the computer, files and other papers organized. As for any active drilling and striving?...I don't feel the need for it. [/quote]
