This is actually a valid question that, I believe, indigo asked to better understand how your daughter is responding to the pace of coursework psychologically. That is an age where perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and suppression of self-identity begin to surface in children whose needs aren't being met academically at school. Emotional well being is a key driver in the Iowa Acceleration Scale of gauging the appropriateness of acceleration/skipping.

With all due respect, I can appreciate that you are under stress trying to create the best possible situation for your daughter. However, this community is built on respectful communication, and I would urge you to review the community standards if you intend to become a regular member of the forum. (See the tab labeled "conduct".)
