[quote=Anonymous]In my birth family, two of my brothers and I were gifted. Grew up in the Midwest where the options were limited so the answer was to skip grades and do more on your own. I skipped grades and graduated early, got my college degree and started graduate school at age 19! One middle brother was significantly challenged in the traditional school environment. I think he struggled a lot. But, he is very gifted when it comes to working with his hands, inventing and building things. He failed college algebra classes multiple times and yet builds his own solar panel systems (with no instruction manuals- he just seems to know how to figure it out) - to power his self-built tiny home. He also picked up languages faster than the rest of us when we lived abroad, as he learned with local friends while my parents and I worked with a tutor. So, I echo many PPs on how siblings are different and can be "gifted" in different ways.[/quote]
