[quote=Anonymous]I'm going, if only to hear what Starr's plans are for the future of GT education in the county. I dont' expect to like what I hear, but I want to know what we're in for. And if he sees enough people that genuinely care, it might help his decisionmaking process. But I don't have great hope for that. My impression of the administration is one that looks at research, thinks it's right, and plows ahead and does what it wants. I wish I could tell him what raising a GT child is really like. And I know mine isn't going to college early or anything like that. But all the things that come with the label are exhausting. It's not just a smart kid. But people don't understand that, and everyone wants a gifted kid. The perfectionism, anxiety, sensitivity, meltdowns, lack of friends - trust me, you don't really want this.[/quote]
