[quote=Anonymous]BRILLIANT! ote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not to hijack this thread but I'm honestly curious, [b]how does one go about finding out if their child is "gifted"? Do the schools do routine testing based on identified abilities?[/b] Or do parents ask for them? My kids are still very little so I have no idea how this works. I remember my own very bizarre experience of being pulled out of class sometime in elementary school to take some tests, then being put in some "gifted" program with some other kids, some of whom turned out to be really smart and some of whom turned out to be deadbeats (er...wasted talent?). How does it work in this area?[/quote] If you are white and upper-middle class, your child is gifted. http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/01/22/17-gifted-children/ That's how it works in this area.[/quote][/quote]
