[quote=Anonymous]It's a total crapshoot. One child was a very late talker -- we even did county speech therapy -- but by 3 was incredibly verbal, reading at 4, top of class in K and 1st. Now she's still very bright and towards the top of class but no genius, certainly. She'll always be a quick study, but it's evening out some. Another child met all milestones early. Very active, very curious, and did everything early -- walking, running, talking, climbing, reading. He's very very smart -- IQ around 135 to 145 -- but also has tremendous ADHD and other issues. Every kid is his or her own basket or talents, struggles and oddities. To paraphrase Forrest Gump's mother, each kid is like a whole box of chocolates -- you never know what you're going to get. One day may be the caramel cream (yay!), another day or issue may be one filled with that weird liquor.[/quote]
