[quote=Anonymous]I just can't get over the number of people on here who truly think their kids are gifted. If gifted means exceptional intelligence, well beyond the norm, there is no way all these children are gifted. "Exceptional" means they stand out...are your kids' teachers ALL saying that your kids are the most amazing they have seen in their careers? That is the type of child that is truly gifted - one that stands out in a sea of other students over years of time in a classroom. The one kid you never forget you taught because he/she is truly exceptional. Advanced in math or reading, big vocabularies, periodic table knowledge, etc. - that doesn't cut it. Helpful? Yes. A blessing? Absolutely. Gifted. Nah.[/quote]
