[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Gifted kids don't get bored and behave badly in schools. That's a myth.

And she's not likely to suddenly listen to YOU.[/quote] Sure they do. But they can also be immature for their age, with or without any of issues that may be comorbid, and those behaviors are not yet developmentally inappropriate for a kindergartner. [/quote] Being immature for their age does mean that they act up. Acting up or being disruptive or aggressive or overall not getting along has nothing to do with gifted or immature. [/quote]
