[quote=Anonymous]My advice is love and appreciate the child you have. Giftedness isn’t the most important thin. I really believe social skills are more critical for long-term success. Also, having a good work ethic can take an average kid further than a lazy gifted one. Anyway, kindergarten really is too early to determine academic potential. My older kids were late readers and it predicted nothing. The gaps between them and their classmates disappeared. By HS they were in the same classes as the “gifted kids”. [/quote]
