[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC does surprising, out of the box things all of the time, but I haven't documented anything nor do I know what counts as "impressive" to anyone besides me.  I'm not around DC's peers and am not sure what is normal for this age.  The examples mentioned above for example are not mind blowing (no offense) - [b]I just feel like whatever I include to so subjective - I feel like a bragging parent[/b].  [/quote]

The questionnaire is optional. If you do not want to brag, then opt to skip the questionnaire.[/quote]

I want to provide useful, relevant information.  I am having a hard time filling out the form.  I write something and then scrap it, imagining the screening committee member rolling their eyes at my stories.  I guess I just feel like as a parent, how can I be viewed as objective about my own child's brilliance?  Doesn't everyone think their kid is a shining star?  I'll fill it out and submit, I am just struggling right now to weed out what is truly relevant I guess.  [/quote]

If it helps, you can't actually write that much more than a sentence or two.

Pull up the online form and type a bit of nonsense.  You will see how very little space you actually have to write something.  They don't want as much information from the parents as you might think they do.[/quote]

I didn't realize there was an online form.  I scanned the form that came with the letter and used text boxes to fill in the information.  I had plenty of space because I could choose the font and the spacing.[/quote]

You might get dinged for that.  They intentionally set it up so you can only give one example or maybe two short ones.[/quote]
