[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As in life, I suspect admissions are more about optimal intelligence than highest intelligence. My DS tested FSIQ 158. I basically think he's screwed for life. That's too high. (I'm not being falsely modest here; I mean it.) He's in Big 3 primary, and his teachers just don't know how to engage with him. He's bored. He seems like he's in space all day, but he's just thinking about more interesting things. If he were to apply out, his teachers would probably write tepid references. But that's not his fault. [/quote] Sorry to read. I am the PP accused to be a troll. You are not alone at all - and really do not listen to the people who tell you that you are bragging about your child, that there so many others like him at school who do so well, that you need to feed him with additional activities outside the school etc. Not all children are the same. There is a real pain both for the child and for parents (when they realize that the choice they made for their child was not the right one no matter how excellent the school is). Not easy to realize but so true. You can do something about it. As another PP rightly said there are solutions, look around, unless you are ready to wait until middle school when it goes a little better. Your DC is not screwed for life, he needs to find how to deal with who he is and you can definitely help him. Good luck. [/quote] I'm curious, do your children know their IQ scores?[/quote]
