[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp, how am I offensive?

I believe that many, many kids that score in the highest percentages can benefit from differentiation and proper learning environments.  I don't know how, as was previously posted, one assumes education in places with peers of similar intellectual abilities is somehow doing them a disservice, socially. This in conjecture, at best.

My apologies - I was responding to the PP who got a 170 at her Stanford Binet and whose three children scored in the 99.9 percentile. 
She is lucky to have had such a great experience and so are her children.

PP, I am 100% with you. Learning with peers is such a gift - especially at a young age when they need to build confidence. The latter does not come that easy when those children hear so often how weird they are because they are interested in black holes or know everything about the Roman Empire. Young gifted children remain gifted teenagers and gifted adults - they really do not change in the way they think or approach the world, it is just that the level of readiness to confront the real world is different.
