Incidentally, there has been some hinting that my son could be add (and I can see why) - but it often doesn't quite bear out. He doesn't have some of the fundamental symtpoms of it like the organizational component, the impulsivity, the hyperactivity, etc. (I guess the word for that is subclinical) and I can see that his WISC profile may sort-of indicate ADD/ADHD. His eye doctors, OTs and myself all believe that the ADHD affinities are due to the hypotnia and vision (and probably his giftedness to a certain extent as well).
Also, I do not believe my son is HG... I believe he is just gifted. I think his true IQ is somewhere in the low 130s.
