[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So if everyone is happy with the AAP centers for their highly gifted kids, why can't this subject of whether anyone is good enough for the center just drop off?[/quote]

This is the first respondent here.

I don't think the people complaining are the parents of the profoundly gifted kids.

I know of a small handful of parents whose kids fall into the same range as my HG kid, and without exception they feel the same way that I expressed and that the other few respondents stated.

We are looking for normalacy for our kids, not putting them on some strange, isolated pedestal, and are very happy that AAP provides a more normalized learning experience for our kids.

We are also not concerned about everyone else's kids' qualifying scores as it does not impact our kids in any way whatsoever.  We know our kids are going to learn, no matter what, and have gotten used to providing extra enrichment where needed.

I think the parents consistently complaining about the "poor HG and PG kids getting shortchanged in AAP" are not actually the parents of the kids they are "advocating" for.  Just my observation.
