[quote=Anonymous]Here is a summary about the purpose of the AAP forum from the sticky post at the top of this forum:

"...It would still have all the AAP stuff in it, but [i]that[b] would be ignored by those to whom it did not pertain[/b][/i]. [i]The overall goal would be to provide a forum where people could discuss these issues [b]without it causing offense to those who do not appreciate that these kids exist and that there may be programs to help them[/b][/i]. It would cover identification, testing, programs (including but not limited to AAP), assimilation issues, and general problems that come up. For example, how to respond when people comment on how smart your kid is in front of others, what books to give very young readers, how to keep your child from being bored in a lightly differentiated classroom, whether acceleration would be helpful, how to get your child to stop correcting thier peers, whether (and how) you should after school to keep the child interested in learning, the problems with bored children... None of these topics can be brought up here (or in real life) because it just sounds obnoxious. But they are real problems that people face, and it would be great to have a way to discuss them here as this is such a great free-speaking community...."[/quote]
