I'm not sure you can hot house to that extent if the child isn't actually gifted. DD6 gave her the thumbs up!
It does seem a little braggy. Perhaps she is just insecure? I can relate coming from such a gifted denial family!
DD8 spooked me when she was an infant a few times because some of the things she did were so unusual for the age. I admit to calling a gifted psych. myself to ask questions about what she was doing. He was very kind and said that, yes, it sounded very unusual. Then explained about the testing process and how it's really hard to determine anything before 4 or 5. He was very kind, I'm sure I sounded like a nutcase, though!
