[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is not gifted or even really smart. However he was what they call "hyperlexic" as a toddler and was spelling out words with magnetic letters and drawing accurate analog clocks when he was still in diapers. He is totally average now in fourth grade. Family is always making comments about gifted programs and such for him and [b]I just say something like "I keep in touch with his teacher and she's doing just what he needs" which seems to do the trick.[/b] They have these recent memories of him being a prodigy and it's hard to let that go.[/quote] The bolded. My objectively least intelligent child is highly communicative, and I know that debates will just exhaust you(well, probably). [/quote]
