NP.  To PP with math outlier kid, although this is the AAP forum and you'd think that it was a safe place to candidly discuss advanced students, people obviously are very easily triggered by anything that makes it sound like you're bragging (anonymously, which I find funny) or like your child is brighter than theirs (case in point, angry former teacher.)  They will jump up and down and say you're wrong, despite all the evidence to the contrary and when that doesn't work they'll say it is because you "hothoused" him and/or none of it really matters in the long run anyway.  LOL, classic DCUM.   Don't sweat it, you know your child. [/quote]

You sound unfamiliar with the reason why Jeff created a separate AAP forum.  It was not to provide a safe space to candidly discuss advanced students.  [/quote]

I cannot believe I have to break it down like this.

I did not say that this was the purpose of the creation of this forum.  From what I understand, it was created bc many in the DCUM community felt that AAP dominated the VA Public Schools forum and wanted a place to discuss VA schools without constant AAP discussion.

THAT SAID, when discussing Advanced Academic Programs, inevitable discussion regarding advanced students is expected, normal, natural.  AND one would THINK that you'd be able to without people getting all out of sorts and making assumptions about kids they don't even know.
