[quote=Anonymous]OP I love your post! I am school director at an affluent pre-K in NOVA and yes, we get parents who are certain their children are gifted constantly. And these are 2-4 year olds. Like your child's teacher, we get it so often, it is amusing and annoying. Every once in a while we have a child who actually is gifted, but those kids are almost always at a significant disadvantage because often their social development is so far behind their peers that it is difficult of them to function well in a classroom. Gifted kids in pre-K often have asynchronous development so there is still lost of work to do with them, even if they are reading chapter books in pre-K. You sound like a great parent. [/quote]
