... my daughter isn't complaining about boredom ...
And then others, like my wonderful PG son, are tickled pink & purple to just endlessly coast, enjoying the frivolity along the way. My son never complained about boredom at school, and even when pressed, he was generally without complaint.
This is my DS9. In fact, we chatted about this again just the other day. He is in a school for HG kids, which is a great fit. But he remembers what it was like in our local school. He now says he doesn't want to go to a gifted school for middle school. He says he didn't mind it when he didn't learn anything -- he could just daydream or read a book. He admits to laziness.
I forgot to tell him that most regular schools give lots of homework -- his school doesn't believe in anything other than reading a certain amount every day or finishing work you didn't finish in school. Maybe that will change his mind!
