[quote=Anonymous]Since he's competitive, I'd get him into chess tournaments or mathcounts (math competitions). And otherwise, just read to him (for fun). This is what we do. Our kids are also smart, and compared to many parents in this area, we are pretty hands off. They play a lot and I'm kinda liberal with screentime, so long as hw/practices/chores are done. But I think it's important to at least pay enough attention to know where he is being grossly unchallenged - and try to fill in the gaps there. Otherwise, he'll never learn to work hard. [/quote]
