[quote=Anonymous]Ok my two cents as a parent of kids who all have natural "spikes." I don't like the word spikes - maybe my kids are weird for having them, maybe it's not the norm? I would think most kids would find something interesting that they are pursuing, whether it's art, music, a sport, history, a social issue, etc. They are all well rounded in that they;'re good students at both humanities and stem, active in sports, etc. But they also have unique interests that developed into a talent for DC1 (headed to HYPS). The others have interests in completely different areas and they spend their free time exploring those areas. For DC2, it's translating into research (on his own) and submitting papers to regional and then to state competitions. [/quote]
