[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I strongly suspected it when my son was 4, and had him tested that year to make sure that I wasn't being that mom who just thinks her child is gifted. The results of the testing confirmed my suspicions. Some signs: ~intuitive grasp of math, which first showed itself at 2 and included doing multiplication in his head at the age of 4 ~taught himself to ready at 4 ~wrote his own name spontaneously at age 3 ~very logical, methodical and matter of fact ~an acute awareness and sensitivity from an early age to topics like racism, inequality, injustices, etc. ~leadership qualities (that sometimes come off to peers as bossiness) [/quote] NP- my DS tested as exceptionally gifted. For me, the primary indicator is problem solving ability and applying knowledge to different situations. My DS was kind of a criminal mastermind around our house by age three. [/quote]
