[quote=Anonymous]My DH is extremely smart. Everything comes easily to him, especially math. I am above average, but nothing special. Our older DC is similar to me. Smart enough, but has to work at it. He particularly struggles with spelling and writing, though. Even though he is an A/B student, DH has a hard time with him not being as quick as he is himself. I think he assumed his kids would be smart because he is. Our younger DS is very bright and so far things seem to come easily to him. I think he'll be more like DH. I find myself defending older DS because I know what it's like to have to work hard at certain subjects and that it doesn't have much bearing on success in life. I don't want him to develop a stigma because he isn't super-smart. [/quote]
