[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm familiar with with all that background. I just suspect you are one of those parents who attributes all your child's issues to your child being gifted. Unless you have a PG child. That's very different from having a regular "gifted" child but you know as well as I those kids are rare even in our area.

Please count yourself lucky if your DC does not have some of the emotional/social issues others have discussed. Reduce the smugness and increase the empathy. Many of us with gifted kids have kids with serious struggles - we don't just "attribute" their issues to being gifted these are real struggles. There are many factors interwoven. There are many studies showing how gifted kids have increased anxiety, social struggles, etc. as a previous poster stated. If your DC does not have these issues and is a socially well adjusted, low anxiety, happy, and super smart kiddo - you are very fortunate. [/quote]

My child has a high IQ. My child has anxiety therefore my child struggles sometimes in the classroom. They are not the same thing.[/quote]
