 I just love "your kid must not be as smart as mine" - the ridiculousness brings a smile to my face. Especially from a mom whose kid [b][i]hasn't started school yet.[/i][/b]  You can't make this stuff up.

Signed, Mom who is a National Merit Scholar herself and whose kids were reading chapter books (take that!) in K and are now in magnets (why do I say this? to establish street cred about my kids being just as smart, or smarter, than yours) [/quote]

MoCo magnet?  You sound exactly like someone I know.  You are constantly blabbering on about how none of the kids in the program are truly gifted.  "Just bright" you say.  At the same time you go on and on about how your "just bright, not gifted" daughter is so advanced trying to make your point.  "She knew all her states at 18 months, but she is just bright."  I have never understood your argument, and I feel sorry for your kids.[/quote]

Haha, no, that's not me and I've never talked about my kids' proficiency with states.  I have no idea who you imagine you're talking to. I will guess, though, that my kids are older than yours and you have never met me. [/quote]
