Thanks Prissy. There's a lot of good insight in what you just wrote.
I'm going to ignore Dude's antagonizing remarks. I love a good argument, but I have other outlets for that. I once wrote this in reply to someone who reached out to me in a positive and friendly way when I was very new to this forum:
"I've done my share of spreading and defending libertarian ideals on another forum, but here I intend to be much more passive, and more focused on the issues that brings us all together: gifted issues."
It looks like I forgot why I was here.
I think NASA Mentors would be a better program, especially if it was available in a version that wasn't pastel colored with hearts and flowers (assuming a pastel version existed, which would be fine by me) and didn't specifically say that it was "a project that offers a one-of-a-kind experience to middle school GIRLS across the country."
