[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Speaks four languages at age 12. Publishes in MS, HS. Leading violinist at 10. But those are prodigies. There is a difference betwen prodigy and gifted. Some gifted kids know better than to stand out that much --they are too smart for that![/quote] I think many of the naysayers are confusing prodigies for gifted. In my opinion, there are savants, geniuses and prodigies on one level,[i] then[/i] gifted, then exceptionally bright, followed by smart. I am sure that many of those posting that they have a gifted child would agree that gifted is not on the same level with the first three, but very much more advanced than the exceptionally bright and smart kids.[/quote]
