Hello master of none - I'm pretty new here too, but you will find there are many experienced and helpful parents who can probably relate to whatever situation you throw at them. My DS4 is not yet in school, but i found private testing to be great for helping us know what we're going to be up against when DS does go to school. Also, since we saw a gifted education specialist, we got very specific information and counseling about our HG+ kid.
questions - your story re: good night moon reminds me of our DS as an infant. If anyone sang "rock-a-bye baby" to him, he would start tearing up and then sobbing. When he was old enough to talk, and we heard the lullaby somewhere (certainly not from us!), he asked, "why does the baby have to fall?" So we're thinking that he understood the words even as an infant!
