[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question: what should a parent with a (tested) high iq child say? The word gifted always leads to ridiculing comments. What should someone say instead? There are real questions to be answered, and perhaps having a different way of asking might help?[/quote] Talk with the educational psychologist who administered the test. Don’t post to DCUM because you will get snark because little kids have a huge range of abilities. Come back and post in MS or HS when things are more clear on the gifted front.[/quote] My child has complete testing done due to some concerns. The neuropsych recommend gifted classes. WOTP school told me they only provide any support or additional instruction for kids who are below grade level. Same school has gotten rid of enrichment over a period of a few years. Supplement with outside resources or find a school district with a gifted program. [/quote]
