[quote=Anonymous]OP I would point out that your sins IQ is not really 'gifted'. I have that IQ and studied engineering in college. I'd call that IQ the bare minimum to get by in grad school but nothing special - I still had to work my ass off to do well. I noticed that the kids who were told that they were 'special' when they were young were often the first to leave school in disgust because things weren't going their way (and apparently they were supposed to because they were told that's how it should be). I only knew my IQ because I was poor enough to volunteer myself for paid research studies at the NIH while I was in college.. You know - I was a laboratory rat I guess and they measured my IQ one day. I wouldn't tell your kid he's gifted. Bright maybe, gifted - no.[/quote]
