[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]13:50, I think I have the same son. I have him on a short leash at all times and it's exhausting. Lord, these kids are so hard. And the flipping brilliant IQ only makes it that much more miserable in dealing with him. i would feel like a total failure if my other child weren't sunny, sweet and well-behaved. That said, yes OP, there are a whole lot of parents in this area who have a hard time being the grown up. It's truly horrible to be around them and their children and I regularly avoid a close friend over this very issue.[/quote] I think it is comforting to believe that misbehavior is a side effect of brilliance, but it is not. There are brilliant kids who are very well-behaved.[/quote] Brilliant or not, some kids are just a pain the *ss. I have two like that. I have no idea if they have high IQs or not. But, I can tell you that they are just brattier than a lot of other kids. Or "spirited" if you prefer. (They are cute and lovable, too). We are not wimpy parents. We are firm. Sometimes we yell. We consistently use time outs. But, they are tough. [/quote]
