My son complains that he feels so much older than the kids in his class even though he is a good year younger than a lot of them. This.
This is going to be true for a long, long,
long time with a HG+ child.
Mine is still living this as a 15yo college freshman, fwiw.
The problem for my DD is that she isn't all that subtle about how she feels about other children her age. She refers to them as "the younger children" in a rather condescending tone. When I remind her that some of them are older than she is by a few months, she responds "fine then, the YOUNG children."
She then turns around and literally starts screaming about spilled ice cream.
