Hello. Our son is gifted with adhd, as well as a few other diagnoses. We are new to all of this and I keep getting criticism from family along the lines of “don’t push him into gifted, he just needs to be a normal kid”. When I try to explain the asyncrony they say “putting him in gifted will just make the gap wider” or “don’t make him the oddball who can’t make friends” or “don’t you want to just raise a normal happy boy”. Ugh! Trying to explain things to them is hard. Anyone got any resources for explaining 2e/Gifted to people who think you’re crazy?
