[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Awww, you poor thing. God forbid some other child has the same advantages as yours.

If you want special treatment for your advanced kid, get a tutor. Lots of parents do this. Public school is for the collective, not your individual kid. If you're relying on only the schools to get your desired outcome or path for your kid, then you're failing as a parent. [/quote]

There are so many kids smarter than your kid that it would serve every child in the collective better if they could all be grouped and taught with other kids at a level and pace that meets their needs.  [b]Why have some kids bored and making trouble just because they are too far ahead or behind to care about what is being taught that day?[/qu[/b]ote]

LOL!  I remember a mom making that argument a few years ago.  Her kid was the same age as my DH.  Her kid ended up not going to college even though he went through the GT program.[/quote]

Actually, crashing and burning is not uncommon for highly and profoundly gifted people.

The successful people usually fall into the much brighter than average category, not the gifted category.

That is why gifted programs were created and why they fall under the umbrella of special ed.

It also says a lot about someone's character when they become gleeful about a young adult's failure.[/quote]
