Indigo, I'm not a parent; I'm just a gifted adult survivor of severe child abuse, who has chosen not to have children so as not to pass on my suffering any further. My identification as gifted played a role in some of my trauma, and I hope to share some of what I've learned to help the next generation of gifted kids.

Tigerle, that's funny. I did stop seeing him, and am only realizing months later how underhanded and slimy he was, and how he had nothing to offer from the start but cutting me down and lecturing me on basic things I'd already shown him I knew. smirk This kind of thing can be hard to see at first, especially if you have a dissociative disorder, as I do.
