[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have never heard anyone actually use phrase ‘gifted’ in real life - typically code for ‘my child is on the spectrum and I am in denial’ [/quote] Really? It’s a recognized IQ category, and has no diagnostic relation to autism. [/quote] Not all gifted kids are Autistic. That’s a terrible myth that has gotten a lot of kids misdiagnosed. If your kid is gifted, why not let him on YouTube to watch the Crash Course series. Download the app and let them play the games that quiz them on the material? Or let the do the online cartoon math classes offered by Art of Problem Solving? Or go to one of the Chess master sites and get a video game to learn chess? You get a break and they get the mental stimulation they need. Screen time doesn’t need to be all brain rot. It can have him info your not an expert in. [/quote]
