Oh my Belle, the videos didn't bother me (I saw only 2), but your description did. It sounds like the mother has quite a few problems herself. Is she trying to proof something to herself? Yes, she is bragging to the extreme and pretty much telling everybody that no other child is worth her own.

I would actually say that she did some reading about gt kids. The part about her daughter needing 1st graders points that way.

I hope she doesn't put too much pressure on her daughter. I feel some parents can get all wrapped in IQ scores, testing, school applications, being better, smarter and learning all that time that it becomes their major concern and goal. They forget that following the child lead especially at this age is the best thing to do and if the kid wants to play with dolls and do nothing else for two weeks then it's fine.
