[quote=Anonymous]Just a bit of perspective here...when my daughter was young she was very advanced - with language, especially. Her in home daycare and then her daycare center both thought she was gifted. We wanted to start her early in kindergarten, and when we took her to the pediatrician to see if she thought my daughter was ready to start school, the ped said “Ready for kindergarten? She’s ready to TEACH kindergarten!” Fast forward several years and she’s you’re run of the mill average 7th grader. Doing very well, but by no means “gifted.” I think there are probably a million more stories like mine. [/quote]
