Not Op but you have to put your child in position to succeed first.  There's no way to know in preschool.  Going the other way is harder and is many times a suggestion by those who want to eliminate potential competition.[/quote]

Agree with this.  Why in the world would you want to dissuade OP from helping her kid learn?  Some of you DCUMs are crazy.  [/quote]

If your child wants to learn, feed the brain.  Absolutely.  But don't force it.  Some kids are ready to learn at different times.  And I think if your kid is gifted, you'll know.  Follow the kid's lead, but also expose them to lots of different experiences.  But you should do this for all kids, not just when you want them to get into the HGC.  If it's good for them to go, the'll be accepted.  But then, I guess this is the nature vs nurture argument...[/quote]
