[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is insufferable, that is clear. Only difficulty is trying to determine whether the pro gifted or gifted doubters are more annoying. The insecurities of some of the posters on both sides is frightening. For the sake of your children, get a backbone and be kind to others. [/quote].

What are pro-gifted?  Pro gifted education?  Is that what you mean?  IF so, please show us their insufferable statements you claim are here.

Attempts to defend this or that as gifted vs. critiques of what others think constitutes gifted. Both rather annoying! Both here![/quote]

Yes, because there aren’t literal definitions of giftedness and tons of papers by experts out there, reiterating the same thing. Yet DCUMers somehow think they knows better about whether a stranger has a truly gifted kid or not. What a crazy notion for some to come on here and explain or defend the reason for  possible niche need for this child.  How dare they../[/quote]

I haven't expressed an opinion about what constituted gifted or disparaged the mom's opinion at all. However, for a child who is profoundly gifted, learning age-appropriate social skills is frequently a compelling need. Any number of good schools can provide that while OP supplements academics.
