[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gifted kids don't get bored and behave badly in schools. That's a myth. Truly gifted children always find something to engage themselves. As far as what you should do, I am going with nod passively and ignore. I'm sure the cognitive dissonance is hard for her. And she's not likely to suddenly listen to YOU.[/quote] Yup, this. I have a family member who was a gifted child. Extremely gifted. Went to college at 15 and finished in two years type gifted. The first few years of school while he was bored with the work, he always found ways to keep himself busy. This description is usually by parents of very young children who don't want to deal with behavioral issues.[/quote]
