Why can't all of us have a conversation and learn from each other no matter what the alphabet in front of the G is?
My point exactly. Why change any other letter to a P before posting?
Why care so much when they do?
It is disappointing to see you repeat this, when it has been
well answered upthread:
I do care, because making a claim about being "PG" when it isn't true can lead to all kinds of problems. For example, if people are fabricating giftedness, their posts can't be trusted. Yet we can't know who's making it up, and so parents here may be believing advice based on experiences that never happened. This could tend to harm their children rather than help them.
Also, if a false claim of giftedness is made in real life, it can make teachers cynical when an actual HG+ kid comes along. How many of us have had to convince teachers that our kids really are gifted in the face of a belief that parents make it up? That belief isn't formed in a vacuum.
...
(And if anyone here is fabricating giftedness, please stop that.)
I will join with another parent here, in asking why this does
not bother you.
