Yup.  And again,  OP should be happy that her kid is not having any problems rather than looking for them.  When I was in 1st grade at a catholic school I had 50 kids in my first grade class.   I still remember one day when everyone was talking and the sister made us all stand up, and then allowed me to sit down since I was smart and always got my work done.  I would make up for it later in elementary by causing plenty of problems and grabbing plenty of teacher attention.   Ultimately, I would get 2 graduate degrees from an Ivy and top ten school and go on to have a successful career and a meaningful life.

It all balances out.  Despite all the hysteria about our "gifted" kids getting lost and held back, the brightest do manage to succeed.

You're wishing ill on PP because she described how she caused problems in elementary but was successful anyway?[/quote]

I'm sharing some age old advice about being careful about being arrogant and boastful.  Learning humility is part of a Catholic education - I'm sure she caught my meaning even if you did not.[/quote]
