I do like the "chips and salsa". Great title for a book on children formerly known as "gifted". wink It would be the ideal book for new teachers... everything you always wanted to know about gifted education, but were afraid to ask.

Meanwhile, possibly ADS (asynchronous development syndrome) would be a beneficial alternative phrase to the word "gifted"?

Imagine: "My child has ADS. Sure - he has some challenges, but there's a plus side, too. And it's important we all stay focused on that." Now we're talking their language!!
