...And I have a lot of sympathy for grade-skippers!
To tell you the truth, we picked HSing over grade-skipping in part because it seemed easier on all of us. None of that messy "you think you're so smart" nonsense for DS to deal with. No more advocacy issues for me to have to handle (badly!). etc.
Sometimes I feel like a coward, taking the easy way out. I think you all have the really hard row to hoe!
I am going to my mirror now to repeat 100 times, "I appreciate your input" without gritted teeth. It's a good skill to learn, and one I need to master!
