[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't chug caffeine or have silicone. Do have DC who went the "normal" accelerated route to Geometry Honors in 8th grade. Although DC is clearly proficient in Math, we are fine with that track, which required no pushing or focus on math outside just the class work. This left DC time for other activities, school and community theater participation, advanced writing courses, regular old fun summer camps, sports (including in national competitions), etc. DC knows how to do almost anything, has tried almost every sport, and has seen pretty much every TV show and movie that's not wholly inappropriate for DC's age. We thought it much better to focus on exposing DC to as many activities and interests as available means a lot more than focusing on one dimension, particularly given that DC is in top tier academics without any plotting or pushing. In other words, building EQ and social qualities is as important - or more so - if you are already starting with a decent IQ. [/quote] Good for you! Finally a voice of sanity. [/quote]
