[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. I don't think my child is gifted, but she is like a little sponge that takes in information quickly & has high curiosity of things that she is interested.

She likes her brain to be stimulated & active 24/7 except sleep time. Every week, she has daily after school clubs/1x swimming/1x chess club/3x foreign language class/1x soccer/many playground time to keep her busy. We are not home till 7pm, and she is obsessed with the internet world either watching silly youtube videos or watching videos related to science/geography/history/space. If I don't let her use computer/TV, she will read books( comic books or chapter books or graphic encyclopedia) or find someone to play boardgame/chess or ask me to print out math sheets for her to do or want to go outside to play.

The school cannot satisfy her curiosity & does not stimulate her brain enough that she needs to seek out other things to do after school. I wish the school can do some enrichment or form small group for kids like that at early grades.

OP, you’re describing every privileged child ever.  She watches silly YouTube videos and you take that as evidence that she isn’t being fulfilled at school?   But watching science videos is also proof she isn’t being fulfilled at school?   [/quote]
