Thanks.

I find that I am reading (and I guess writing, too) as a gifted adult of a gifted daughter. In many ways I think that I profited by the lack of programs and structure as a kid. I skipped four grades, took university classes in seventh grade and generally did whatever I wanted to. It's fascinating to see the pros and cons of 'standardizing" gifted education options. Luckily my daughter is in a small school with a remarkable set of asynchronously developing kids.
