[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will say OP that this could easily be a function of your daughter. It is true that many with her makeup are gifted. My DD will find something to stress about.  It doesn't matter whether it is hard, easy, or in between. Maybe AAP is contributing to her wandering down the OCD and perfectionism road but I honestly think that is a road she was going to walk down no matter what. My DS on the other hand, could use a little perfectionism in his life but no AAP or other program is going to provide it to him.  His ego is pretty much unshakeable whether he is exceptional, average, or behind the curve.[/quote]

Could be right, but wouldn't you think the AAP program might take that into account since it is a common theme among gifted learners?  Although I guess AAP isn't really a gifted program, but more of an accelerated pace program for students who can handle the accelerated pace.  If it were a true "gifted" program, the approach would like consider the emotional issues.[/quote]
