[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If you need to appeal, you should consider writing a letter outlining why your child needs AAP. Don't say "the GBRS is wrong", but discuss the kinds of behaviors listed in the GBRS and give very specific examples of how your daughter demonstrates them. You can also find other criteria of "gifted" by searching Google. Just be sure you give strong examples of the behaviors your daughter exhibits.[/quote] This isn't bad advice, but such a letter probably won't carry much weight. Let's face it, there are plenty of parents who are so intent on getting their kids into AAP that they will stretch the truth, if not downright lie, about their kids' "gifted" behavior and abilities. The AAP screening committee knows how non-objective parents can be. [/quote] And this includes making up examples.[/quote]
