[quote=Anonymous]I will cop to using the words "special snowflake" - at least I think I used these words on one of the handful of recent threads we're discussing. But I'm not 15:45 or 16:29. I would however like to join me voice to the pleas others have made for certain PG parents to change their advocacy style. I second/third/fourth the calls for less playing the victim card, more humility about the nature of our problems, and less assuming that gifted kids are entitled to something other kids don't get (unless your school differentiates for LD kids, kids in the 70th vs. 80th pctile, and kids with stressful homes and all the rest). This is totally different from the agreement we've reached to be pleasant, give each other the benefit of the doubt, and agree to disagree.[/quote]
