[quote=Anonymous]Since this is anonymous I will say I think I understand what you are experiencing. My DD has hyperactive impulsive ADHD and is in constant motion. She is also a literal genius. Every once in a while someone sort of pieces it together and they are surprised but then they move on. Most of the time it’s NBD.

However there are a few moms who have made it their life’s journey to enrich their kids and they do tons of extras like tutoring etc. there’s one mom in particular who I think is annoyed my child is at least as academically strong as hers (I suspect mine is ahead but we do have those crazy awards which are pretty awkward so I don’t really know) with out any of the extra stuff, that I’m a working mom and not particularly invested in academics right now. People don’t know that we have to work hard on other things for her and I’m very focused on helping her become a well rounded person. But honestly that’s like maybe two people and I think it has to do with their own insecurities rather than anything about me or my kids. [/quote]
